    I never thought I'd be so happy at finding gas just under $2/gallon. In Iowa it's about $2.10 a gallon and Nebraska $2.14.

    Starts from $2.47 here, and that's for a f-ing regular... Never understood why IL has one of the highest gas prices in the nation, almost as bad as CA. What gives?

      I've been meaning to ask - we've been paying $1.50 odd a litre, and right now it's as low as $1.06, is that the case everywhere ?

              Doing a quick google conversion (1.99 usd per gallon in aud per litre) works out at about $0.70/l in Aus. I filled up for $1.10 last week and thought that was a bargain. But, on the bright side, we back up to $1.27ish this morning....:sigh:

                Lucky one you are. Here in germany we are currently at about 1.20 € per LITRE! 1.20€ * 1.267 = 1.524US$ * 3.785 = 5,77US$ per gallon! Seeing this do you really think 2$ per gallon is much?

                  In my part of the UK (which isn't even the most expensive!!!) unleaded pump petrol currently retails at approximately £0.89 per litre. This isthe equivalent of $6.37 per US Gallon!!!! Now you know why the UK population aren't permitted to carry arms.

                    $0.52 = $2/3.7854118 (litres in a gallon) €0.408672 = $0.52 (Courtesy of XE.com) Unleaded Petrol is currently averaging at €1 a litre here (Courtesy of IrishFuelPrices.com) Seems to me like your getting a good deal, what litre engine is your car ?

                            Ditto. My car runs on LPG, which I believe is just over a third the price of petrol at the moment...

                              In Denmark (and AFAIK the rest of europe) the prices are almost an all-time high at the moment.

                                  I'd have no idea were it not for the filling station over the road. £0.86 per litre, which is around 10p cheaper than a month ago! Ah, the joy of using a bicycle to get to work :-D

                                    crude prices are falling sharply. About a week ago someone posted about a hedgefund that had recently made a gigabuck on oil futures just reported a 3G$ loss due to the same. What a tragedy. Edit: if you find the thread don'tbother reading replies, it rapidly degenerated into accusations that the oil companies were doing it to elect republicans or that Soros was trying to keep driving it up until after the election but ran out of steam.

                                      I never thought I'd be so happy at finding gas just under $2/gallon. In Iowa it's about $2.10 a gallon and Nebraska $2.14.

                                      This past weekend I paid $2.16 for Premium in SC (regular was $1.96 for cash $1.99/credit). The station was packed with people and was joking with a guy that everyone came running out to fill up not knowing when it would go back up. He laughed and said he was going back to get his wife's car for just that reason. LOL. Any thoughts on whether these prices will continue? Amazing how this doesn't get nearly the media coverage the increases did, huh? :rolleyes:

                                        Is that the one in Ashurst, near Lyndhurst in the New Forest? I can't imagine tehre are two petrol stations that expensive... All the Best Julian N.
