since mid-April at a middle of nowhere interchange while everywhere else its been averaging 3.30-3.70. For whatever reason at a small interchange on an Interstate they suddenly built 6 giant like 20-30 pump "Pilot" style truck and auto fueling stations there over the past year bringing the total to 8 flipping stations. It's 5 miles from where many of my Dr. visits are so I can save upwards of 30-40 bucks on fill up there if I use rewards. I hadn't seen a real "Gas War" since the 80's lol.
