NJ just went from second lowest gas taxes in the country to seventh highest.

It’s okay though, we’re balancing out this newfound tax revenue by getting rid of estate tax.

So how much does a gallon of petrol cost in New Jersey? Cheaper stations in the SF Bay Area are around $2.49/gal.

Certainly NJ has no immediate transportation needs.

It’s the interstate state. It’s the state you drive through on the way to New York.

About $1.90-$2 right now. It hasn’t gone into effect yet, that will be on Nov 1.

87 will probably end up around $2.25 I guess.

I mean it sucks, but at the same time NJ Transit is a fucking joke, our bridges/roads are falling apart and the transportation fund is out of money. We’re also getting a small sales tax break so not entirely terrible.

If this means PA is going to be cheaper I can now not worry about some dude trying to bury the pump nossel in the bottom of my gas tank. I had to yell at a dude the other day because he kept slamming the nozzle down and rocking my whole truck.

Is that why NJ is renowned for its perfect roads?

These are fair points.

The PA thing in particular is a good consolation.

My Jag has its tank vertical, and the attendants always end up spilling gasoline on the trunk. It’s gotten to the point that I’m happy when my car prematurely triggers the nozzle shut off, because it means that I can get out and hold the nozle and be the one to remove it.

For some reason my Landie triggers the nozzle shut off randomly (I’m thinking the repeated slamming have something to do with it) so the geniuses solution is to always try push it down harder.

Ouch. Mine does the same, but usually they either give up or slide the cap from a window washer fluid bottle under the trigger.

In my case, I’m almost certain it’s because the handle shifts and breaks the seal, so I just hold it straight usually.

In New Jersey’s defense, I also don’t have to get out of my car at night in a sketchy area or in a snow storm.

In Chicago that’s what they get for pump it yourself regular. Premium is hovering around 90 cents more. Damn 1.8 turbo passat.

As I’m reading your response, I’m struck by a question. What do motorcycles do?

When I refill on my bike, I need to cup the top of the nozzle with my gloved hand, as my saddle shaped tank is only about 3 inches deep in the middle, and gas would otherwise spray everywhere.

Is an attendant accustomed to this?

What about gas cans, boats, snowblowers on trailers.....
