gas price up ^

well, there is a thread titled gas price down so now it is time to get a thread for gas price up.

Watz up with the oil market heh? 2 months ago, I was paying $2.16 for v-power shell (premium grade). Today, it is $2.55 for the same premium grade v-power shell. Wth (what the heck) is going on? What is everyone paying in their neck of the wood?

idk

but does anyone get a kick out of it when on the news or some place they say "its even more expensive now to own cars that use premium fuel, so keep that in mind when purchasing"

i want to slap them every time i hear that because its going to cost you the same amount more to use premium no matter how much gas prices are

you guys think that is high. In Vancouver gas is 106.6 today which works out to be 4.02 a gallon.

Damn that's cheap!

Filled up today £52 @ £0.999/litre, or $100 dollars @ $7.20/US Gallon. Ok it's diesel, but the cost of petrol is only a couple of pence per litre cheaper.

I guess it is time for our canadian members to put on their winter suite and go out there and tap those reserve tanks and share the wealth with us so we can enjoy revvving up our e90.
