in canada, we go by litres, i dunno how many litres are in a gallon, but we're doing 1.09 per litre, and thats a lot in canada, even though it sounds small.

$1.79 per gallon, I'm sick of paying this much for gas.

Places in Europe have $6 a gallon prices right now, so we shouldn't be complaining!

Here in Canada, our prices have been about $1.00 (Canadian) a litre for most of the year. $1.06 (Canadian) per litre today when I got gas.

For all you americans, thats about $3.61 US per gallon. This isn't really high either, as I said it's been like that for a while. Last summer was this price, and I expect it'll go up a helluva lot this summer as it always does. Wakeskating is hitting the wallet hard....

im paying 275 to 299 for diesel across palm beach county. which is about 35 dollars for 12 or so gallons. and that takes me about 600 miles.

thats 50 mpg

oh man i love turbo diesel.

when fossil fuels really get out of hand im switching over to biodiesel, but the nearest place is 22 mi away, so ill probably start making my own.

Are there any recreational boats that actually have diesel motors out there?
