Fuel Prices in Your Area

[MrCrowley]

They already have pneumatic cars, running of nitrogen I think. I can't remember, some guy in France (sigh) invented one. Has 3 3000psi carbon fibre pressure tanks under the car which will only rupture in an accident, not shrapnel.

@jook13,
Yeah but it would be way cooler if the hybrid cars actually worked like a conventional spudding hybrid.

1 US gallon = 3.78541178 liters
the euro is worth about 1.5 USD, so i think it's about even
(or worse, my math skills fall apart during summer break)

Maxus is paying $2.50USD a litre, that's $9.25USD a gallon, not even.
Same with spudfarm.

The thing that irritates me is when people complain about how high prices are but everytime they go up the gas station is full of people buying gas.

indeed, but doesnt a turbo or supercharger do that? I am not sure, I am not a mechanic

Because people need petrol for their cars.

I complain about the prices of PVC, but I still buy it. Same story.

There was a survey here in NZ that asked the question:

If petrol rose to $5NZD a litre, would you change your driving habits?

Something like 80% of the people surveyed said they wouldn't.

im currently working on a bike that has two seats, but only one petal. that way i can get around without using gas, the only problem is i havent found anyone willing to pedal for free.

gas is about $4.50 here. about $5 for diesel.

i was listening to something on the radio that farmers in my area are paying over $1000 a day for fuel. i'll bet some f those tractors dont even get 1 mile to the gallon...

[blind909]

here in vegas it is 4.30 a gallon for regular, and 4.50 a gallon for deisel.

$3.65 at Costco, about $3.80ish everywhere else. Upstate South Carolina...

Did anyone realise that the crude oil prices will effect the price of plastics (plumbing parts) plus the prices for trucks to transport them.
We might have to buy stock pile of parts before the price spike

[mark.f]

$3.81 a gallon here (Louisiana). I'm not all that worried though because I'm going to be biking everywhere soon.

[Carlman]

Today unleaded is at $1.55 / L

it takes me 60$ a week to run my car just for fuel and i get 100$ a week lol

[SpudMonster]

Gas here in CA is at Sodomy and 9/10 cents a gallon.

[Spitfire]

In SA we pay R10.23 a liter. Thats about 1.25USD a liter, 4.68$ a gallon.
And here i thought we paying waay above other countries for fuel

This is true, maybe we'll see more metal cannons.
