In Boulder, it's just about every other car these days.

Your opinion doesn't count. You like cars that don't take things like fuel conservation into account.

My car gets pretty good gas mileage, and it certainly doesn't look like a freakin' shoe. Looks and fuel frugality are not mutually exclusive concepts, but it seems as if the folks at Toyota haven't been clued in.

I filled up for $3.01 @ noon today (downtown Cedar Rapids) while every other station is around 3.19-3.30. I drive an Avalanche, so I'm quite familiar with every gas station within 20 miles of my home and the prices they keep.

If nothing else, the good thing about living in St. Louis is the price of gas is usually among the top 10 lowest in the nation.

It's always $.10-$.20 lower in St. Louis than it is 5 miles away in Illinois. Smokes are a lot cheaper too.
