The price of gas isn't "just the price of gas". If that's the case why is gas $3.25 on 466A and $2.99 on 441 and $3.59 in Ocala ? . True though, the taxes definitely vary between states and even counties but some stations may just want to make more money so different brands of stations may pay more or less wholesale than others. So contributing to the price of gas is cost + markup AND of course taxes.
