I'm sure 'Golden Showers' (Shores)...wasn't any cooler.

Needles also has the dubious 'honor' of often having...the highest gasoline prices in the Lower 48.

While it IS ways going west on I-40 before you see more than just a lone gas station, about 15 miles east on I-40 at the cutoff to Lake Havasu...are two truck stops with gas that is at least $1.00-$1.50 a gallon less (at least a few years ago).

America’s most expensive gasoline

As far as Mayor Jeff Williams is concerned, the town of Needles is often famous for the nation's most expensive gas...the entirely wrong reason.

Weve been on the national news too many times as the town with the highest gas prices in the United States, Williams said with a grimace in his city hall office. Its an embarrassment.
