Syracuse, New York (WSYR-TV) - We’ve heard about it for months, but it has finally arrived in central New York. Regular unleaded gas is now selling above $4 a gallon at some stations. A handful of area stations are now at the milestone mark, including the Mobil station at the corner of Velasko and Onondaga roads. It’s actually selling gas for $4.05 a gallon. The average price in the Syracuse area right now is $3.89. Just two weeks ago it was $3.70. One year ago it was $3.11. The national average is $3.79 a gallon. That's a 17 cent hike over the past two weeks.

Here too (Norwalk & Stamford CT). Finding it *under* $4 a gallon would be news. Except for a couple of stations on Route 7, the average price seems to be around $4.07, with some as high as $4.30 or more.

Id say im shocked, but, i saw $4 about 2 weeks ago in my area... most areas around me are $4.07... "discounted" areas are $3.93.

I find it amazing how NY is cheaper then CT for gas.

“Drive Offs” must be at an all time high

Seeing most states wont let you pump gas without paying, it probably isnt. When iw as in VT, the "big debate" was how you now have to prep-pay for gas now. I know down south, you just pumped, then payed for gas... that was a few years ago. Though, the laws for drive offs down there are serious, and everytime you pump, your reminded of what can happen.

This reminds me of a something that happened to me years ago. I was once driving through some rural town in Viginny or North Carolina when I stopped for gas. Since this place was so rural, I figured it was "pump first, pay later." But when I tried the pump it did not work. I went inside and asked the guy if he wanted me to pay first. He said no and that he didn't know I was out there. So he turned on the pump and I went out and filled up my tank. When I went inside to pay, the guy looks and me and in all seriousness asks, "How much did you put in?"
