In Columbia, South Carolina I can find gas for $1.85. I think im 
winning the game! :-) I actually think SC is about the lowest in the 
US. Hope the car companies are making some fierce progress on 
electric and Hybrid cars. I worked at a Honda store for a while last 
year and their hybrid Civic can get something like 50MpG but the car 
has less horsepower and less cabin space.
