I am taking some time off at Indialantic, Florida which is on a barrier island east of Melbourne, Florida. Regular gas here on the island is $3.58 a gallon. Regular gas is $4.03 a gallon in California. In Hawaii, regular gas is $4.27 a gallon.
California and Hawaii field service representatives need to point out their higher expenses for gasoline and ask for higher inspection and property preservation fees. You deserve higher fees and you should ask for them.
