    Just to expand on what Rayzorblade mentioned.

    $0.85 per litre Can.

    x .6689 Current Exchange rate as per RBC = $0.57 US

    x 3.8 litres per US gallon = $2.17 US.....or $ 3.24 per gallon CAN

    So there ! We Win.......

    Only consolation I guess is that a month ago it took 159 Can $ to buy 100 US $, now it only takes 149 Can $. Pretty soon our dollar will be worth more than yours.

    LuckyLucy,

    I live in Texas and today I paid $1.72 a gallon for Super and filled my large American car up. I drive 70 miles round trip to and from my office office everyday not to mention the miles I drive on business during the week.

    Well here in Aust. we are paying $1.04 per litre,

    Our dollar is at about 60c US so thats 1.04 X .6043 US exchange rate=$0.63US

    x 3.8ltrse per gallon= $2.39per gallon US or $3.95per gallon AU

    Is that right?

    my maths is a bit rusty.

    Lucey,

    I live in FL. The gas prices vary but the cheapest you can find it is $1.79. I'm sick of these high gas prices!!!

    According to http://www.gaspricewatch.com/ the highest price in the USA is in Sacramento CA at 2.84 a gallon and the cheapest is in Georgia at 1.34.

    I paid $1.75 at Costco last week for regular unleaded. I don't pay much attention to Super prices but I know they are teetering around $2 a gallon.

    Thanks for the info LB! Steve has been considering buying a Land Cruiser in Sacramento, I'll make sure the guy gives it to him "full" if he buys it!

    Still after that landcruiser. Well let Steve know that we're about half way home I think and our home is open to him on the drive back. If he gets this one.

    Maybe I'll get him to sneak in a dive????

    He was hoping you'd say that. It's kind of a long shot, but a nice cruiser that we'd love to have. Just some tough negotiating going on.

    Gas prices definitely vary here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. I paid $1.59 the other night, but other places it's a few cents cheaper, more in other places. I think here it depends on which intersection you're located.
