gas prices

[chilehunter]

out of curiousity, what's everyone else paying for gas nowadays ?

1 gallon = 3.785 liters

here its around $3.87 - $3.95 a gallon (right now & just 87 octane)

[rabbit]

$4.09 a gallon here. It was a little more last week. I don't travel as far very frequently due to it. Kind of sucks when your grocery bills, and everything else goes up due to it as well. Just one more reason to become self sufficient down the road. I just need the land for that;):)

[chilehunter]

I hear ya!
what sucks is everything is going up BUT wages to compensate for oil prices.

[DevilDuck]

I just paid $3.75 for 86 (yes, 86) octane and that was a deal.

Normally between $3.87 and $3.88.

EDIT--

Here's high and low here.

I hear ya!

What makes it even worse is not only are the oil prices going up but inflation is hitting it at the same time. Man.........talk about getting shafted:shocked:.........Then again that's what happens when a private bank is allowed to issue gov't currency without anything to actually back it. Oddly the ONLY thing that somewhat backs the dollar is petroeum, but that obviously isn't doing so hot now either is it...lol!!

[bentalphanerd]

Around $1.49 litre here

thats $5.63 gal

with the conversion 1 au$ = us$0.94

comes to $5.29 gal

...& thats 2cents a litre off for 10% ethanol

[QuadShotz]

I don't drive, but last time I was in car they refilled at $4.04/gal. Was couple days ago.

Glad I opt out of society..it's just crappy. ;)

......I feel the same way sometimes:lol::lol:

[Philipperv]

$1 = P44.20, 1 liter of gas is P55-58 now = $4.71-4.97/gal

[rainbowberry]

£1.18 (average) per litre, so that must be around $2.30-40 a litre. That's for unleaded petrol, diesel is more expensive.

[talas]

£1.25 a litre (unleaded) in wales/North and £1.13 a litre in the midlands..just crazy crazy prices..and on mere speculation :shocked:

[Sickmont]

We've got regular unleaded at anywhere from $3.97 to $4.12 here....so i've been riding my mountain bike a hell of a lot more.

[Chiliac]

>1.50€ per litre. Not sure about the conversion rate atm, go find out yourself! :)

And because you've got a flask holder on yours you can go on really LONG rides ;)

[AlabamaJack]

3.92 in Fort Worth

[JeepZeke]

Paid 3.94 yesterday in Cinti. - everyplace else was 3.99

[Hot Canuck]

$1.30 a litre or $4.92 a gallon.

[imaguitargod]

$3.99 a gallon. But I do see it for $4.05 a gallon at some places here. And that's for 87....which is what I use.

[woody]

Diesel £1.30 a litre thats $2.60 a litre, 2008 and we can't make produce different fuel...water would be nice :)

Wish i was paying $1.50 a litre (75p) its nearly double in the UK

[Sickmont]

And because you've got a flask holder on yours you can go on really LONG rides ;)

Hey I get about 60 miles per shot/burrito!

[rainbowberry]

In the Sun newspaper today they were comparing the costs of running a car and having horses with a carriage, a bit bizarre I know considering the speed a horse would do and other setbacks with it but obviously the horses were a lot cheaper. How great would it be to ride a horse to work? (a horse, not a my little Pony), you can't ride Rainbowberry.

[imaguitargod]

you can't ride Rainbowberry.

Some kid was doing just that in Kentucky or Tennessee(riding his horse to school and to work and such) and they finally found a way to bust him for it. They got him for littering because of the road apples.

[Sickmont]

: repeats to himslef :

"Don't go there Passow...don't go there Passow....just walk away...don't comment..."

yeah, it took an awful lot of self-restraint to not 'jump' on that one myself.

At least we're on the same page!

[eyepee]

I agree w/ Sickmont!

87 Octane = $4.17

[chilehunter]

>1.50€ per litre. Not sure about the conversion rate atm, go find out yourself! :)

thats simple for everyone.
if ya want to compare prices from gallons to liters, divide our gallon prices with 3.785 (liters in 1 gallon)
or if we'd want to compare your liter prices to our gallon prices, we'd just times your liter prices with 3.785.

& it seems like USA is a little cheaper. but I wonder if your prices are higher taxed for other needs/programs other than transportion projects ?

[LUCKYDOG]

4.35 for regular unleaded 4.45 for medium grade and 4.55-4.75 for super premo and over 5 for diesel -- Last I heard we were second to California the Governer is staving the tax increase in July we'll just see how they get revenue now

[Sickmont]

I suggest everyone pick up a bike and start bicycle commuting(if you're close enough) to work. I do it 3 or 4 times a week and it saves me a ton of money.

But get a flask holder fixed on it first if it's a long journey.

We have car share schemes going on in the UK, and if you don't know of one at your work place you go on a site and find one in your area.

They've got really crappy mass transit here, but there is a decent carpooling system available here. But as i only live 4 miles from my job and i enjoy occasionally getting off my ass and getting outside, i ride in.

As a plus, it's faster to bike to work than driving because of the traffic here.

[AlabamaJack]

heck, I would get run over here riding a bike...have been thinking about getting a moped tho

is Sally around?

[andres]

In Guatemala around US$4.65 a gallon. And over here you have to use your car. Using public transportation is like playing russian roulette. And riding a bike is out of the question. Tons of motorcycles on the street, though. I have been hit by a car twice in my life so that was it for me and motorcycles. Guess I have to suck it up...

What gets me is that there is no oil shortage, it's just a bunch of people speculating on prices and playing the market. Same thing happened with coffee this year. The crops were fine and lots of coffee to go around, but some assholes somewhere in the world started playing around and just you wait to see how your coffee prices are going to go through the roof.

Sounds like an awesome idea, but i don't think Mr. Chavez would be too thrilled to have me around.

Screw Chavez... once we are there we can throw a coup and take control over the country. I have always wanted my own country...

[AlabamaJack]

I'm up for that...don't know if the wife will be or not...sure will miss that ol' girl.... roflmao...

[hixs]

Ok ethanol based is appx 3.83 a gallon

regular unleaded is about 3.91 a gallon

My tacoma and subaru get appx 60 to 70 miles to the tank more with actual unleaded gas and not these designer blends of ethanol.The difference is amazing.Basically pay 1.20 more for the extra mileage. Rich

Only problem i see is The Creator promised me Australia and IGG Germany when he takes over the world.....see if he'll give you Venezuela. I'm sure he would'nt mind at all.

What equiptment do you need? I've got a small seat bag for the bike stuff(tire repair kit, extra tube, CO2 pump, etc.) and a nice backpack thats been perfectly sized to fit a 12 pack(bottles) and a fifth of whatever else.

And you can always add panniers if you need some decent cargo carrying capabilities.

of course we in Oz can provide 80% of our own fossil fuels...but we're still linked to the asian market for the price of it...WTF is that :lol: & thats not throwing in our coal, uranium or solar assets which could also cover our entire needs if we decided to quit apec (the c is for Cartel...its a friggin mafia).


Theres other stuff involved like our recent 20 cent/litre hike coinciding with a recent new govt decision...but this aint the place to discuss politics or i'll have to stick my mod hat on & slap ya...lol

BTW dunno what the deal is in other parts of the planet...but here in Oz, you can take a pedal bike on to most public transport...trains, buses, trams, etc. (but not during rush hour)...and if its 200 watts or less its still qualified as a pedal bike so you can use it on footpaths, pedestrian malls, public parks etc....and use to to & from mass transit options to get to where your going.

[bentalphanerd]

yeah well thats another spike....fuel is damn heavy stuff...you look at race cars & they adjust all kinds of stuff with a load of fuel on....

...Dont fill it up...go for two half tanks, you'll get way better economy.

There is a grey line there between completely filling up and filling up half a tank. In half a tank there is more room for the gasoline to become gaseous. That decreases the efficiency of the car since more of your precious gasoline goes up in fumes. Would these two effects (weight vrs. evaporation) cancel each other out?

Most cars built from the early 90's on use a sealed evaporative fuel vapor system. They reintroduce the vapor into the intake manifold to be mixed with the fuel/air mixture. In fact, if fuel vapor leaks out, it'll throw the check engine light on and your car will start to act up a bit on you.

hear its at 116.9 a litre of unleaded 55 pounds to fill the tank

I know I wasnt clear when I said "equipment" but I meant equipment for work ladders,planks,compressors,hoses,cords,& many other tools needed. so ya see it'd be damn near impossible to ride bike to work when its in the 100+ miles a day.
but if I could I'd have the biggest fricking legs :lol:
I have everything needed for mtn biking, dont wanna be 20 miles away from your truck with no means to get back ;) too bad I gave up on biking, it was a blast.

yea dont it suck that $100 cant even fill your truck up (I got a 30 gallon tank) $75 is debit limit here but you press credit it'll go to $100 (even while using the same card)


a couple months ago someone got busted with a very elaborated, & I mean a very elaborated setup to steal gas straight from the gas stations, the cops wouldnt even mention how the setup was made or any details LOL just that the guy would just drive his truck over the lids for the huge gas tanks & park right on top of'em, then just open them up through a access door in the cab floor & just fill up the truck bed full of gas :lol:
suppossedly those lids are not really locked, well I guess until now they'll be changing this feature to prevent people from stealing gas striaght from their own tanks LOL

One Month Ago 3.720

Ugh. :rolleyes:

[Philipperv]

Nice thing here is that public transportation is still dirt cheap. Costs less than 20 cents to go up to 4km. A more private local "taxi" still only averages around 60 cents to $1. Being a former cab driver myself, I actually have started voluntarily overpaying some drivers because their latest fare increase hasn't been big enough and they are still really hurting.

[chilehunter]

1 gallon = 3.785 liters
liter price X 3.785 = gallon price
gallon price divided by 3.785 = liter price

today filled up for $2.63 per gallon, heard of some places being $2.58 on the news.
much better price vs months ago that were $3.98 begining of summmer.

[bentalphanerd]

lucky you. Our benefit from cheaper oil got soaked up by the falling dollar...exactly, to the cent. Pure coincidence of course. As well as having a falling dollar despite being named as one of the few countries in the world that will not be greatly affected by the current turmoil.

$1.40/L here

[chilliman64]

I filled up for $1.46.9 yesterday

146.9 * 3.785

= $5.56 AUD per gallon

exchange rate on ebay (0.711677) makes that $3.96 USD gal

http://pages.ebay.com.au/services/buyandsell/currencyconverter.html

[Philipperv]

$3.73/gallon here now. Has come way down. Hit $5 a few months ago.

[AlabamaJack]

It's about 2.85 a gallon here in Fort Worth...my boss went to Oklahoma City this past weekend and he said he got gas for 2.40...

[DevilDuck]

There are a few stations here that are selling for $2.75 and one close to I-40 that's still up to $3.36. Once it goes down under $2.50, I won't complain so much.

[millworkman]

Wow, we just got down to 3.19 and I am excited.

[Davetaylor]

i'm with woody on this i wish i was saying nearly $5 a gallon that would be about £2:50 a GALLON the cheapest i get it at the mo is £1:03 a litre yep you read right a LITRE you fancy paying prices like that

[imaguitargod]

$2.99 here in the Land of Cleve.

[LUCKYDOG]

I paid 3.45 for mid-grade in CT its about 3.15-19 for regular.

In CT they tax fuel and additional .25 a gallon on top of federal. This year the tax was frozen but will be revisited soon.

[Sickmont]

Tis' about $3.04 a gal. here but it doesnt matter to me because i sold my car 2 months ago and just ride my mountain bike everywhere now. Grocery shopping can be a bitch(takes a lot of planning) but i've saved like $400 this past month already by riding.

[LUCKYDOG]

Thats great you could do that Sickmont -- there is so much distance between places I have to go it woudl very difficult... not as difficult as it would be in Texas but difficult none the less

If there was a better mass transit system here i'd be set...i'd go much, much further than the 25 or so mile radius i have. I cant even get to St. Pete or Tampa without renting a car or taking a greyhound(which for $60 for a 35 mile roundtrip will never happen....plus, i cant take my bike without crating it up for shipping). But, basically my biggest issue now(besides the weather obviously) is time and timing...guessing how long a trip will take.

Good 4 u. I didn't sell my van but only drive it about once/month to stock up on groceries.

[LUCKYDOG]

I would definitly do it but timing is key -- everything on the East Coast needs to be done yesterday.... not being able to swear at people on my way in would definitly change my outlook its like coffee to the soul... ** skinny one on the right Grandma...honk honk **

[Sickmont]

Who says i don't swear at people? You ever see how they drive down here in Florida? Every other word out of my mouth when i'm riding is a colorful metaphor.

[Davetaylor]

prices are still coming down here in the U of K
Paid £1 ($2) a LITRE this morning that's nearly $8 a gallon so if your paying $4 your still getting it for half of what we pay

[DickT]

$2.99 a gallon this morning, 1st time under $3. for a long time.

[rainbowberry]

Who says i don't swear at people? You ever see how they drive down here in Florida? Every other word out of my mouth when i'm riding is a colorful metaphor.

Yeah I'm like that with white van men and any ar*ehole lorry drivers that make me reverse back over small bridges even though it's my right of way. It would help if I could reverse in a straight line too.

[AlabamaJack]

just filled up for 2.77/gallon...

[chilehunter]

filled up for $2.48 (gallon) tonight.

& to think it was like $1.50 more only something like 3-4 months ago :rolleyes:

[Sid03SVT]

its just about $2.97ish in VT, CT, NH, & MA - the price tends to stay consistant across these states as its been dropping

[LUCKYDOG]

Sid is that the "cash" price ? also I dont think VT has that POS additive MTBE

[talas]

Damn gas prices under a £1 a litre at last..Lets hope it keeps going down :)

[Sid03SVT]

in CT it is a cash price, and it may have gone down again today; also i didnt think any state in new england was still using MTBE, they all switched to ehtanol a couple-few years ago

[LUCKYDOG]

Thats it still shitting up mileage.... When I go to NH I fill up and end up driving for days longer than I would in CT

[Chiliac]

One litre is about .26 gallons and I am paying about $1,90 (€1,40) for it atm.

[chilehunter]

filled up the other day for $1.98 a gallon :cool:

[imaguitargod]

filled up the other day for $1.98 a gallon :cool:
Ditto. I heard it's going to go back up soon. :(

[Txclosetgrower]

Ditto. I heard it's going to go back up soon. :(

Duh, election season is over. Btw $1.95 here :)

[AlabamaJack]

I just saw it for 1.93 and will fill up tomorrow...if I'm lucky I will get away with less than 50 for the first time in months...

In Germany the litre gas is about 1,329 € which is today 1,69 US $. One gallon is 3.79 litres. So the gallon is 6,41 US $. In summer the litre was 1,559 € which was round about 2,34 US $ at that time equivalent to 8,87 US $ per gallon.

last time i looked it was $2.09 here but i dont pay that much attention anymore

[Sid03SVT]

its about $2.30 a gallon in VT, $2.15 CT, $2.20 MA, $2.15 NH; at least where i get gas, which isnt far of the interstate, so prices may be much lower elsewhere... I wonder when it will start to climb again..

[LUCKYDOG]

I havent seen 2.15 here yet Sid must be more north its hanging around 2.20. - 2.25 --granted thats a hell of a lot better than it was!!

[DevilDuck]

Mostly between $2.19 - $2.25. One station knocked it down to $1.99.

You'd better have a way to stabilize it for long term storage as well. Gasoline turns varnishy within a few months or so.

Still holding over 2.15 here -- I hoping since MN is selling so cheap that it will trickle some over to the East Coast

I know that happens, I was kinda joking around but it sure would be nice to have a supply of gas (bought cheap) for when the prices go back up to $4 a gallon :( it only took something like 2-3 months to change from $4 -under $2, I can only imagine what it'll be next summer :rolleyes:

sorry about the prices where you live. theres a town thats ALWAYS cheaper than the rest of area including most of the city, I plan most of my trips to go through that town if I can so I fill up in the morning or night if needed.
its like they dont plan on gouging the people, which is cool. wonder what they're selling it today for ? it even could be less than $1.89 now :shocked: but dont know not going there today.

I was looking at vehicle sales figures for last month here in Florida and it's amazing how stupid people can be. When gas was $4.25 here people were screaming for hybrids, subcompacts, scooters, and anything economical, etc. but now that gas here is $1.99 a gallon guess what the biggest sellers are now? Yep, big-ass gas pig trucks again. Of course, it doesnt help that when the sales declined dramatically the manufacturers started practically giving them away but jeez, are people here really that stupid to think the fuel prices won't rise again? I'm so glad i ride a bicycle, and have no concern over gas prices whatsoever.

you are one of the lucky ones, you save alot of money not spending it on gas,vehicle,insurance,upkeep.

I was spending something like $600-$700 a month just on gas when it was around $3.50+ :(:(
