88¢ for a liter of gas in Montreal today, or close to $50.00 to gas up my Mustang ! :bang:

Will the price of gas influence in any way the next car that you will buy?

I know if gas price does not go down eventually I will look for something more fuel efficient.

 

Gas prices was one reason I bought the car I have now. It is a 2001 VW Jetta TDI turbo diesel. I get 52mpg on long trips.

 

Yeah, thats insane mang...
Here it went up to 79.5, and went down today..
to 78.9
whoooo

Gas prices suck the sausage

 

88c a liter is US $2.50 a gallon... man that sucks

 

Don't forget the exchange rate though

 

ya i looked it up on the internet. I think 88c canadian is 66c per liter US$. 3.785x.66 = US$ 2.50 per gallon

 

You got that right hdwrench...$2.50us a gallon !

What is the average in the US ? I guess it must different, depending on the state...

Here is a good site to check on the exchange rate.

this gives you an idea of prices. yes they vary depending on where u live.

 

so how much is a gallon in your area?
I'm lucky enough to be able to drive my 'Stang only 6 months a year and only when it's nice outside.......so basically i only drive it week-ends with the boys in the club ....so it doesn't cost me much to gaz it, i will usually put like $10-20 of gaz a week-end depending on where i'm going...

 

Why is Hawai and Nevada so expensive? :scratch:

 

Average price in the us, 45¢ a liter...

edit, I forgot, that's 60¢ canadian a liter.

 

I live in Texas. $1.59 unleaded $1.58 diesel according to that link. To be honest with you i dont pay much attention to the prices anymore becuase I harldly ever have to fill up my diesel.

 

Prices in StL on Premium (93 octane):

min for 03: $1.449
max for 03: $1.849
average for 03: $1.642

 

Hawaii I'm sure has to have most if not all of their fuel shipped over on a tanker. Nevada might be expensive becuase their fuel is piped in from another state. I think thats what the problem was in AZ about 6 months ago. They had to shut down the pipeline from NM that transported a large portion of the gasoline to Phoenix. It was strange seeing all the stations with no gas. They were saying people would follow the gasoline trucks around town in hopes that they were full.

 

Gas prices in toronto go from about 64-78 cents a litre right now.

Funny how the price is THE SAME at every major retailer. Do I smell collusion?

in either case, at these prices I will still buy a Mustang. The thing that will affect my decision the most is driving distance. One potential job is 16 miles (25km) one way, while another is 38 miles (60km) away. The shorter drive is reasonable on a V8, the other one will add up in miles and wear and tear.

 

hey Hatsharpener....you gotta say HI to some of my friends who live on Utah PLace in St-Louis.....if you ever encounter the Collins, say Hi for me will you!

 

I think he just moved to Arizona this week.

 

Unless you have the Mazda 2.5L 4-valve V6 which only takes premium......then you pay +$0.10 = $0.89

Man, filling up a Mach 1 would be terrible. At least I get about 11L/100km with mostly city and some highway driving.

 

Update, it's now 97 cents canadian a liter of regular gas in Montreal or $2.68 us for a us gallon and it should go higher during the summer, I don't know about you guys but I would think twice before buying a V8 mustang...I guess depending on how much mileage you do it matters more or less, anyway it does not seem to affect SUV sales much, go figure :scratch:

 

Whiners... It averages around 85c/l here and on holiday weekends it goes up as high as 99c/l for regular. We have so many taxes on gas here it's rediculous. This chart burns my butt.
