Man, wish it were that cheap out here in NV, we get the California gas, $2.14 for the 87 junk, $2.59 for the 91.

Costs me 5 bucks just to drive to the gas station with my 454. My '98 TransAm isn't much better.

I'm blowing close to $50/week on gas.

Oh well, I gues there is a price for fun.

Still not bad compared to gas prices in the rest of the world.

93 octane here is up to $2.15, up .30 in 4 weeks. Regular is now between 1.92 -2.10 depending which crook you go to.

Down in OZ we pay the equivalent of 2.90 US per US gal for unleaded. If you want premium it's another .25c per gal
Boy, am I glad I put the overdrive box in.... :yesnod: :yesnod:

If you closed the borders you would only be screwing yourself over because of all the stuff that is imported. This would result in regular household commodities skyrocketing in price. When your paying 2 dollars for a single light bulb and 4 to 5 times for your electronics then we will see if you can afford your corvette :rolleyes:

I paid $1.01 for Supreme fuel (self serve) per litre. The conversion on that means its $4.59 for and Imperial Gallon. So what can ya do, pay it or stay home.
