*bump*

update please. i heard wacky shit like California is causing the average gas price to rise and the rest of the country had an average decline (not sure over what period) and then Cali stations were getting in gas wars and dropping it down to like $2.50/gallon.

$1.40 litre approx here in vancouver

Is that a car shaped like a shoe, or a car used to haul shoes?

Gas prices have risen slower than inflation over the last 20 years. I don't believe anybody is entitled to purchase fuel at a certain price. It's really a beautiful thing.

Take your bike, get rid of your SUV, especially if you're childless and have nothing to haul.
...Or not. You can always put it on your credit card...

I believe it's around $1.90 here in Iowa.

about $1.85/gallon in Atlanta. Christ, that's expensive; I remember back in '98 or '99 when it got down to $0.69/gallon. Ever since then it's just gradually gone up and, of course, recently it's skyrocketed.

I think X-Wings run on super-concentrated orange juice. Much more efficient and cheaper than gasoline.

I hear they're more efficient than TIE's though. Sorry, I really shouldn't get back into this conversation.

Imagine what your X-wing would cost to operate...

True. On my flight back from South Africa, the captain was chatting away, and he happened to mention that that single journey was using 56 tonnes of fuel! Thats insane, right!?

I may walk to work but I drive everywhere else in my Volvo which does no better than 24 mpg. Ouch. It costs me £58 to fill up. Passed a couple of petrol stations today in North Lincolnshire selling unleaded at 83p litre. About £3.81 for a UK gallon. I calculate this to be about $5.65 per US gallon.

Doesn't concern me too much. If the government didn't tax me heavily here then they would get the money out of me another way. The thing that pisses me off the most is the ridiculously low fuel tax that the airlines have to pay. They should be brought more into line which would then end the stupid fly to Malaga for £1 offers. Totally unsustainable and environmentally damaging.

A little under $2 per gallon, at most places in the area.

99.5 in Coquitlam today (which is buy-no-gas-day,btw). It was 97.5 on Monday.

Stay tuned for signature change at 400 posts.

Last time I noticed, it was $1.93 here in State College, PA. Hummers and SUVs are very depressing. They're helping the world go to hell sooner.

95.9 cents/litre as of this morning. Was 89.9 yesterday and 74.9 two weeks ago. Woot!

To me, a hummer will always be a blowjob. I'm old-fashioned.
Carolynanna Posted - 05/19/2004 : 12:34:00
Ya, I don't know the conversion for litres to gallons so....
Right now its 88.5/litre,
which is shite b/c we have scads of oil right here in Alberta.
But it is a long weekend, and it never fails to skyrocket before a long weekend.
Steak n Sabre Posted - 05/19/2004 : 12:33:18
That's around $4.94 US per gallon at Cheeseman's... Ouch!

I agree.
I'm getting a motorcylcle. 1967 Honda 175cc. Then my coolness factor will be through the roof. That is until I'm sitting at a stop light surrounded by Hells Angels.
No worries, I'll just punch them in the face!

Gas? I pay quarterly.

I assume you're talking about that refined oil product used to fuel motor vehicles? Petrol?

At the petrol station right outside my window its... [gets up and looks]... 82.9p per litre. I have no idea how many litres are in a gallon, but I know its several, and 82p is, I dunno, about $1.30? Consider yourselves lucky.

Course, if I was Richard 'foot-powered' Barney, I would be happy with the situation, but I'm not, so I'm not.

around Dallas, TX USA
$1.92 a gallon for the lowest grade seems about average. I do see some $1.85/gallon's about, though.
