Remember that price has no state or federal taxes, superfund fees, freight or fuel delivery surcharges. Currently in Montana the above mentioned fees are broke out as follows per gallon:

Current 5/1/06 wholesale regular nolead gas cost in Great Falls is 2.157 per gallon. This figure is added to the above fees for a delivered price to the retailer of 2.632 per gallon. Current retail gas price in Great Falls: 2.599.
