It's £1.359 per litre down the road from me. That's £6.1155 per gallon, tap in the exchange rate - and that's that's $9.705 a gallon.

yeah I know. now idiots are trying to cut power lines so they can recycle the copper to pay for their meth. 2 of those idiots caused me a power outage but at least they died

 they've been stealing copper, brass, and other metals from construction sites around here. a good friend of mine lives across the street from a closed down loony bin. she said that there were police over there at least 2x a week due to people breaking in, and stealing anything made of metal.

Last week, I saw $4.19 for 93 premium.

I just finished a replacement engine for my car that has dished instead of flattop pistons so I can run 87 octane at 6 pounds of boost and bring it up to 15 pounds with 93 and 25 pounds with C16.

The price difference between grades has increased greatly and it makes sense at this price point.

The other contigency I have is a turbodiesel inline six in storage I might install into a 240sx in a quest for 40mpg with the same performance (or better) as in stock configuration.

 none of this gas pricing makes sense. 6 years ago, oil was $105/barrel. gas was $1.75/gallon. right now, oil is $105(i think)/barrel. gas is $3.61.

 THANKS DAY/FUTURES TRADERS, AND FRIGGIN GLOBAL MARKET!!!

Gas prices finally caught up to inflation.

They have been artificially low as compared to other products through the last 30 years.

In Philly and the surrounding communitys they are breaking into homes and stealing the copper pipes, wire and wrought iron........Ive had 50% more claims for this this past year. Just read an artical whereas in Willow Grove, someone is going around and stealing manhole covers. I had a house over in Bucks Co where they stole the aluminum siding  :lol        Just nuts!

back in the 80's they made cars that would get over 60 mpg.  30 years later the car companies are beatching about having to  make cars that do 30 mpg.  something is really wrong here.

not to get political here.  but the price of gas has nothing to do with supply and demand or conditions in the middle east.  it has to do with people speculating in the market.  even since they let people bet on oil futures price of gas went up.  that along with oil companies spending billions of dollars to buy refineries just to shut them down a few months later.

yup. I think it was the Shelby Cobra that was supposed to get a ton of MPG but some oil company paid him millions not to use the technology

don't use gas. diesel fuel in Amarillo, TX was 4.059 x 200 gal =811.80usd. last year same day only (lol) 3.259 x 200 gal = 651.80. the average run to Buffalo, NY and back to Phoenix, AZ is 1100 gal. im a nice guy you can ask skuzzy but i have to pass these price increases on to the receivers. since i haul produce east and meat west i hope your all ready to pay more just to eat. except the crew at hi tech. the blue bell is still free. at least until i get my parafrags

the oil markets, and hence the price, reflect global supply and demand.

whatever the pump price, as a resident of a net oil exporter higher oil prices are a good thing overall. I assume the US is a net exporter too? Imagine what its like to see the increase when your country imports oil ...
