I usually use Chevron or Shell. I rarely use other gas station. Nothing against other gas station, just prefer those to gas station more than others for some weird nature. lol

Chevron gives us 94 octane here, whereas everyone else's premium is usually only 91 or 93. I think Shell's V-Power is 94 now too, but Chevron was first by years and is where all the serious turbo guys go.

Gas was $1.31/L here yesterday.

Here in the armpit of California I am paying $4.10/gal for 87 octane. Premium (91 octane) is $4.30

That's 1.13/L in New Zealand Dollars and 1.10/L in Canadian Dollars for 91 octane.

We paid about $75 for 21 gallons at $3.50(87) for the Durango. I've gotten 14-15mpg on backroads on average when I drive it and OD doesn't work so I'm really nursing it when I drive it . We don't use it for commuting though, just for grocery/supply trips.

Like heck it is. The biggest backers so far have been the Muslim Brotherhood, Iranian influence, and other similar organizations. If those kinds of organizations improve the conditions over there then I feel bad for them. The way I heard it, that's how Hamas won the Palestinian elections, by focusing on improving conditions/infrastructure .

Petrol = Politics anyway you look at it *le sigh*.
Any conflict period, isn't good for petrol prices.

@ Siriusly.Andrew,
I know BC is in Canada but the acronym for Canada isn't CA , it is CDN. And think of it this way we don't pay your fuel prices or have to deal with your medical system .
