Nashville gas prices climb toward $4 per gallon as Iran war continues

[BlueWavePsych]

Source: Axios

Gas prices are surging as the war in Iran continues, with the average cost in the Nashville area tilting toward $4 per gallon.
...
The uptick means filling up a 15-gallon tank costs about $19 more than it did before the conflict, per AAA.

By the numbers: The Nashville metro area hit an average price of $3.88 on April 1, according to GasBuddy data. (We've seen stations in parts of the city already setting prices of more than $4.)

The national average on Thursday sat even higher, at $4.08.

So it’s all good.

2. Good

3. I just tanked up. KCMO is $4.

13. If its $4 in MO . . . .

MO typically is near the bottom for go-juice prices due to it's location (numerous petroleum pipelines crossing the state).

17. I just saw another one at $3.40 . I think that's more

what most stations are at.

4. I haven't seen $4.08/gallon for years.

Nashville is lucky it's not in WA State.

I paid $5.70 for Premium at Costco on Tuesday. Shell stations are >$6 for regular.

7. No, Nashville is not lucky they are not in Washington

They are in shit-hole MAGA hell-hole Tennessee.

I live in beautiful Washington state with sane leadership.

[maxsolomon]

14. Strictly with regards to gas prices.

We do have sane leadership, although you wouldn't know if from any local comment sections...

[Mysterian]

15. So true!

Fucking idiots everywhere.

[maxsolomon]

16. The Stranger ended all comments on all online articles this week.

I can't blame them.

[GenThePerservering]

18. Those comment sections are worse than useless

Quite a few publications got rid of them - they're filled with right wing trolls who do nothing but post all day, and that hasn't changed since the silly practice started prob 15 years ago.

19. I'll take higher gas prices and sane leadership for $500, Alex. nt

5. "climbs toward $4..."

Regular unleaded gasoline is $4.899/gal at our local station, has been for at least the past week. Phoenix area. And of course it's even more expensive in Northern California. The national press should be reporting western gas prices, too.

6. California checks in at $5.895 on AAA today.

Soon to be $6.
All those huge west coast pickup trucks with 30 gallon or more gas tanks are headed toward $200. per fill up.
Add in their abysmal gas mileage and you're looking at a month of driving costing $500 to $1,000!

If you're MAGA, you have to be asking yourself how the fuck this happened. We know the answer to that, but will they ever accept the truth?
Some will, most won't.

8. At the current rate of increase,

I think most locations will be at $ 5 next week.

[Talitha]

9. Northern Wisconsin - I paid $5.20 on Wednesday.

But I use pure gas (no ethanol) and thankfully a monthly fill-up is all I need.

10. Diesel ranging $4.59-4.89 in southeast South Dakota for weeks...

... eom.

[Martin68]

11. I was seeing $4.20 here in Charlottesville this morning, and Virginia gas tends to be cheaper than elsewhere.

[Bengus81]

12. They'll just claim it's a continuing Biden problem and go on with their

kissing Trumps abundant ass.

[BigmanPigman]

20. CA has $8 a gallon gas!!!

It's $8.50 at CA Chevron Stations, $8 in certain Beverly Hills areas.

And don't tell me to move. I'm taking care of my 91 gear old mother.

[Vinca]

21. It was $4.05 in southern NH this morning at the Shell station, 25 cents cheaper at the Irving station.
