I think it's $2.99 for 87 octane, $3.14 for 88-89 octane, and $3.29 for 90-94 octane. Still pretty decent prices, and if you drive a lot it could save you quite a bit of money over 3 years.

They also limit the amount of gallons that the program will cover. Basically it will cover 12,000 miles/year (total of 36,000 miles) worth at the average MPG of the car/truck you buy.

I can see people buying new Ram diesels making out on the deal though. At current prices they would be saving anywhere from $1.20 to $1.50 per gallon and they get at least 3-4 mpg more than the average of 15 that they are allotted in the program.

Sounds like a good deal....the ghandi-gas up the block is $3.64 for regular. It was $3.49 a week ago.

Just saw a Suzuki commercial offering "free" gas for the summer with 0% financing
we're not the only ones who are noticing gas prices

I just heard on the radio that it does not include R/T models or diesels. They probably still get you in the end. Either way your paying for it somewhere hidden in the price.

It does include diesels, and the R/T models.

Using a special card, program participants pay $2.99 per gallon for a maximum number of gallons (which varies depending on model) of unleaded gas or diesel fuel in each of the next 3 years. So no matter what the price at the pump says, you’ll never have to pay more than $2.99/gallon.

Eligible Models:
All new, unused 2008 & 2009 MY Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge vehicles listed in the “Let’s Refuel America Eligibility and Bonus Cash Chart” below are eligible for this Let’s Refuel America incentive offer:
Note: All SRT models, Sprinter, Viper, Crossfire, Wrangler, Wrangler Unlimited, Ram Chassis Cab, and Challenger models are ineligible to participate in this program.

On a side note, it's pretty sad that the Jeep Compass is tied with the Dodge Caliber for the best average fuel economy of everything they offer - at 24 mpg.

this is exactly what they want you all to think, jack the gas prices up to 3.70/gallon or MORE and then everybody is like "oh hey 2.99 is a good deal!" Yes, it might be cheaper than 3.70 but the fact of the matter is, its still way too high. i remember when it used to be under a dollar/gallon. and im only 25! Whoever's in charge of the oil price are scumbags and deserve to be ripped apart limb from limb. they disgust me so much

I actually heard a radio commercial today about it where they said no diesel, but they list diesel on the web page about the program......
