We've updated the Gas Prices home page to show prices at gas stations right near your current location. Even if you haven't set a default location with MapQuest, we'll try to determine a location near you and show the three lowest priced stations in your area.

Set your home and work locations in the If you don't already have a home or work default assigned, just go to the MapQuest Settings page. Or, find it by clicking on the "Saved & Recent" area in the Maps form area and input your home or work default.

Go look for cheap gas now by visiting MapQuest Gas Prices or click on the Gas Prices icon in the MapQuest header.
