A big portion of our 2,000 mile round trip from Los Angeles, California, to Portland, Oregon, consisted of fueling up our thirsty-for-premium 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 10.

We had determined before the trip that we were going to take a picture of every gas stop, which we actually did!

We got gas 5 times on the way up to Portland (Torrance, CA; Coalinga, CA; Dunnigan, CA; Grenada, CA; Albany, OR), twice in West Linn, OR, over the weekend, and 6 times on our return home (West Linn, OR; Grant's Pass, OR; Willows, CA; Firebaugh, CA; Van Nuys, CA; Torrance, CA).
We traveled 2423 miles at an average of 20.7mpg, using 116.15 gallons of premium gas averaging $4.18 per gallon, for a total of $485.10.
