    Today was interesting - saw gas prices for "regular" (the cheapest grade the station offers) ranging from $3.55 to $3.99, all within one trip (Newton to Cambridge/Somerville) less than 20 miles round trip!

    1.40 per litre x 3.78 gives us $5.29 per gallon. BC now pays the highest gas prices in North America and that's thanks to taxes.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    People always tell us everyone else pays more for gas than Americans - goodness, I guess you win the prize, Slick!

    When I was out yesterday, I noticed most stations at around $3.50 - +/- a couple of cents here and there at some stations. That's for regular unleaded in central Delaware.

    €1,78 a litre here x 3,78 making it €6,73 if you convert that to american dollars it would be $8.87 a gallon. We pay the highest gas prices in Europe...it is unreal. If we didn't run on GPL we would never make it. We pay €0,75 a litre for it which when converted would be about $3.74 a gallon (american dollars).

    $8.87???? Yikes - if I had to pay that I wouldn't be able to afford to drive.

    We couldn't either if it weren't for the fact we use GPL. GPL runs us a gallon about the same as regular gas in the US. Thank heavens for us deciding on getting that integrated when we purchased the car 4 years ago.
