It does suck. I am spending about 80 bucks a week the last couple monthes. Biggest reason is we are trying to keep the miles off my wifes lease car. It might be cheaper to pay the fees when we go over. Her car gets twice the mileage.

For me I HAVE TO run premium unleaded in my '67. I hate to think what the price will be. I get maybe 12mpg city.
Me, too, but I get just a few more mpg than you. That Harpoon cruise is gonna be more expensive this year.

I switched to Mid Octane last year because of the prices. Car didn't run that much different, but I'm not looking for the increase at all. Getting about 14-15MPG average. Now that I'm on a bigger budget, less "lets just go for a ride" nights in the future, at least until Jen graduates!!!
Max GOT a trophy
My Cobra AND my daily driver take premium. The Maxima costs me about $100/week to get work now.
I tried switching it to Mid-grade for a couple of weeks, but it decreased the mpg enough so that it came out a wash...
