Another side note on gas...my buddy has been running his diesel on vegetable oil for a couple of years...well on opening morning he is having trouble with his truck due to a clogged fuel line. He opens the hood at 0530 and vegetable/diesel fuel squirts all over him. Hunt over. LOL. He was so pissed.

Still paying $3.19 here, but it's going down fast. That's good because I'm headed to Illinois in 2 weeks!

Why is gas so cheap in Iowa? Here in Louisiana (where we have a lot of offshore drilling) the gas is $ 3.30??

Maybe because of all the ethanol plants here? I dunno, but I like the lower prices and I'll love it if it goes lower yet!

Could also have something to do with how much each state taxes fuel.
