We have it all; mountains (outdoor life), desert, beaches, great city life, real lakes (yea they have water at those), and perfect temps pretty much year round in S.Cal! Our Z's never have to go into winter storage here:-)
Saying "everyone wants to be here" is subjective. However, CA population growth is rising......

Did Farmers Branch ever get that illegal immigrant law they were trying to pass down there?

The gas isn't in short supply, its some additive that they add to our gas here that is so therefore the trickling effect took place.

Paid $4.29 a gallon yesterday with my $.20 cent per gallon discount. Sadly with that Vons or Ralphs rewards point for gas discount works half way for me. I use my credit card for gas so I get the increased price by $.10 /gallon. So really I get $.10 off per gallon and waived credit card fee per gallon.

Works for me though. still beats paying $4.39 a gallon.

I pay $4.45 ($4.25 after $.20 off) for 91 at the Shell on Sepulveda and Venice. I use my CC but do not get charged an extra $.10. Is that your bank doing it?

I live in PV, and I drive down Crenshaw every day. I fill up at Shell on Crenshaw and Lomita, I use a buddy's Ralph's discount for .20 off all every time and they don't charge for credit card, and I get 3-5% cash back on that too.

Arco is a Top Tier gas, so it isn't that bad. And if ever I feel I get crap gas, I work for a lab, I can get any and every additive for free, LOLLLLL

The problem is that everyone here has a Lexus or BMW so we can't get over 91, where in other states the majority of usage is 87, which leave enough octane to get over 91.

Not sure if that makes sense, but I can explain a different way if needed

Its not my bank, Chevron and 76 usually have a credit card/debit card usage fee. May start going to shell now if that's the case, sadly id have to start shopping at ralphs. Right now I use a friends vons discount for the .20 off right now.

I usually get 3%-5% cash back too just depends on what card I decide to use.
As for Arco, I never go there just because I used to go to Arco with my Altima I had a couple years back and had to get the gas tank changed twice due to fact of the deposits clogging up in the tank. After that only used Shell, Chevron and 76 for gas. Used Arco very rarely only when I have to use it usually on road trips where there isn't another gas station or something like that. Never have had good luck with arco

But lets get some of that additives going around and maybe I will start using it again haha
If I could fill up with more than 91 octane I would
