Guest hardyz1 Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 Centre County PA here. The last month it held steady at $1.63, but just yesterday it went up to $1.67. Thankfully I'm driving an '88 Ford Tempo and I only have to spend $20 a week, if that, on gas.
Guest Vern Gagne Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 $1.65 out in WBL, when I bought some yesterday. Not sure the price in St. Paul, it's probably about 4 to 6 cents more.
Guest Tyler McClelland Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 Damn. Up here in Bradford, PA, it's $1.69-$1.89 on average.
Guest Brian Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 1.82 for unleaded in the cheaper parts of Seattle.
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 Between $1.70-$1.80 in SW Ohio. And state pols are going to raise the gas tax by 6 cents in the upcoming years...
Guest J*ingus Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 I've seen it from 1.55 to 1.70 in TN and GA, for the cheapest brand (87 octane).
Guest treble charged Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 Around here it's about 80 cents/litre, but they said on the news that out in Vancouver it's 90 cents, so the premium stuff is actually over $1.00. Ouch.
Guest bravesfan Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 $2.19 (unleaded) in most parts of Hawaii, but the gas tax is fixing to go up.
Guest Some Guy Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 $1.65.9 is what I paid today at the "cheap station" in Woburn, MA. A liter is about a half gallon, right? I don't bother with Metric shit much. And Canada's dallor is about 65 cents or so, correct? I'm just trying to figure out what you pay in American money, not taking a cheap shot.
Guest The Metal Maniac Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 I believe it's .91 cents per litre up here, currently. I might be able to tell you how that equals out in American cash, but to be quite honest, I really don't know what you buy gas in in the States. Is it by the gallon? But yeah, last time I checked, the exchange rate was something like 45-50 cents on the Dollar.
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 $1.65.9 is what I paid today at the "cheap station" in Woburn, MA. A liter is about a half gallon, right? I don't bother with Metric shit much. And Canada's dallor is about 65 cents or so, correct? I'm just trying to figure out what you pay in American money, not taking a cheap shot. I think it is about 0.4 gallons, but I'm not certain.
Guest Tyler McClelland Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 Since the Seneca reservation is a few miles away from me, I can actually get gas for $1.39/gallon if I want. It's tax free. Wonderful, eh?
Guest treble charged Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 Yeah, 1 gallon is about 4 litres.
Guest Some Guy Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Wow, you guys up there are getting hosed. If it's anout $4 a gallon in Canaidian. Yes, Tyler that is cool and I would damn sure be going there for gas if i were you.
Guest Bosstones Fan Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Paid $1.56 here in Houston yesterday. It's up $0.34 over a year ago. Fuckin' price gouging...
Guest Vern Gagne Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 $2.19 (unleaded) in most parts of Hawaii, but the gas tax is fixing to go up. It seems like everything is more expensive in Hawaii.
Guest Spaceman Spiff Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Philly area - $1.62/gallon the other day, but I've also paid as much as $1.71/gallon
Guest franchise632 Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Over the past two weeks I have seen prices in different parts of Minnesota at $1.61, $1.65, $1.69, $1.78. So it can really vary.
Guest MaxPower27 Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Just filled up at $1.73 a gallon in Cape Coral, Florida.
Guest DrTom Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 I put the premium grade in, and it tends to be $1.73-$1.89 around here, with most stations under $1.80. Since the two $1.73 stations are only a few blocks away, I always fill up there.
Guest The Metal Maniac Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Well, if there's about 4 L per Gallon, then that means gas is looking like $3.60 CDN (Roughly), plus the exchange rate of roughly 50%, means we're paying somewhere in the range of like, $1.80 American. So all things considered, we're pretty even, I think.
Guest Zero_Cool Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 I'd say about 1.58 per gallon or so here in Dallas. Only a couple of years ago, it was like 1.10.
Guest BDC Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Right now, in central Kentucky, we've topped out at about $1.68. I drive a 2000 Escort coupe, so I don't have that much to worry about... but I long for the days of $.98 on the gallon.
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Uh-oh -- this came up on Drudge... http://www.drudgereport.com/flash1.htm House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee leaders said Wednesday they may push for as much as a 20-cent-a-gallon increase in the federal gasoline tax over the next six years. That is more than double the proposed 8.1-cent increase included in a plan they circulated just last week, CONGRESSIONAL QUARTERLY reports. Chairman Don Young said "the tax increase will probably be included when the committee drafts a surface transportation bill later this spring. That would push the current 18.4-cent federal gas tax to more than 30 cents a gallon by 2009.
Guest NoCalMike Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Here in Sacramento, CA, the last time I got gas it was $1.99. I drive a Saturn, so the only positive is that for "normal" driving, I only need to get gas once a week.
Guest EricMM Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Good. I hope they do raise gas twenty cents. Anything to drive a spike into gas guzzlings's heart.
