I live in one of the poorest areas of Arizona right now. Gas prices here are INSANE [View all]

Gas prices here on the Tohono o'Odham nation are $4.89 for the cheap stuff and $5.49 for the good stuff.

I drive a vintage 35th anniversary edition Camaro z28 and I've never seen gas like this.

Even in Tucson, it's an average of $4.40 for the cheap stuff.

Since Arizona is a low pay, right-to-starve state as stated in the AZ Constitution, I am trying to understand out people out here on the TON can afford both gas and food (since there is one grocery store and that place is almost 60% more than in Tucson. Case in point: House brand Crystal Light is $3.59 a box for the 10 small pack box, but only $2.00 in Tucson).

Thanks, Vlad and Big Oil.

I have a film festival in LA I am driving to next month. I am really working on on trying to plan fuel stops effectively.
