The news about the 30cents is because in WI, if you live near Milwaukee they have this thing where the gas has a special blend, so gas doesn't give off these bad omissions. This special blend is suppose to be for the summer months when the ozone alerts are higher. This gas actually makes your vehicle run terrible.
What I don't get is I don't live in those Counties around Milwaukee, but our gas stations have now taken on these extra prices and without switching to this blended gasoline.
Our local gas station owner, said he made more money 2 years ago in June when these price hikes started going up then he ever made in one month in his entire career owning the station. What a crock.
I always heard gasoline prices fluctates from state to state cause of the tax on gas. I guess WI pays 75 cents towards tax, for each gallon of gas.
