Just tipped over 4 in my area of Florida. I really wonder how people without decent paying jobs can afford to go places.

just south of Boston,

Mobil/Exxon
$4.19 for 87, $4.29 for 89, $4.39 for 93

Lesser brand names about usually about 10-15¢ cheaper across the board.

In Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

$1.48 for 1 litre of regular grade (87 octane non-premium) gasoline

or

$5.59 per gallon

On the 1st of July when the government institutes a new "carbon tax" the price will go up an additional 2.5 cents per litre or 9.45 cents per gallon.

well i filled up the prius at 3.97/gal the other day. we parked our poor es250 because we can't afford to drive her anymore.

we put diesel in the benz, and that's up to about 4.79 now. argh. fortunately the old beastie doesn't use much of it. we're considering making our own biodiesel out of some of the veg oil to cut costs more...

hyperboy, you gonna make the first diesel es?

Current Gas Price here in the Cayman Islands, $5.22KY for regular 87 octaine, and $5.26KY for Premium 91 octane, that converts to $6.18US Regular and $6.23US for Premium.

we'll have the right to complain when gas is that expensive AND we're still paying 25% of our gross income for for crappy health insurance.

either or, but not both.

just sayin'

If prices keep climbing I might switch to some lightweight wheels to get some mpg back
