    Meh... The cool folks downloaded the "Where" app to their iPhone which uses Gas Buddy to give me the cheapest gas prices where I'm at.

    AND, you get to pay $70/month for a data plan for the privilege.

    I can skip finding the cheapest gas and come out ahead - or use this at work for free.

    I saw Diesel for $3.79 in Denton the other day as well, and $3.84 somewhere else. Prices are coming down!

    saw $3.34 here in Plano today

    Oh and the data plan is only $30/month for the iPhone. Hell, for $1/day, its worth it just to be able to find a Starbucks nearby no matter where I am with the Where app!

    $3.75 for premium at K Ave and Parker. This is what you get for waiting to get gas.

    With gas prices dropping, and temperatures soon to drop, I am hoping that Ninja 250R's may become more available on the used market

    Here's a little personal review from a guy that got one on a different forum.
    His thoughts, what type of gas mileage he has racked up and other comments as well as a couple of pictures.

    Wow, where did you see diesel for $3.79 in Denton? The best I've seen anywhere is $3.89, and that was off of 380 and 288 in Denton.

    Yesterday, $3.189 at the Murphy's in Gainesville.
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    Only got to see the cheap stuff in McKinney while pedaling through on the weekend... Had to pay $3.319 to put 2.7 gals in the petrol powered bike... BTW... With the 60 mpg of the 250R looking more and more attractive, pricing on the SV650/s keeps getting better on the used market. I've gotten no worse than 49 on a single tank, and my overall average over 3500 miles is 52.5. For 7.5 mpg (probably less difference than that, since I'm probably driving the sv harder than you could drive the 250r and get 60 mpg), I'd save a few $$$ and get a bike with less inherent vibration.

    If everybody went with that logic, Harley's would never sell.

    Of course, I'd prefer a Goldwing over a Harley any day of the week.

    It was afternoon at the new RaceTrac but I think it went up into the $3.8* range. I dont drive through Denton regularly and normally stop at the Shell in Crossroads or Earl's in Lincoln Park or the Chevron at 377. I know they all are int he $3.8* range which is about a dollar better than just a few weeks ago.
