    First of all your chart is wrong. I drove west on route 40 from Hagerstown and couldn’t believe my eyes that the price per gallon of gasoline was 2.55 per gallon. Drove back to Cumberland the price was 2.91 per gallon only sixty miles apart. Why are we getting screwed here Itr just don’t make sense. People in this area make less money then Hagerstown
