In the last month, petrol prices here have dropped by 6p per litre (that's $0.43 a gallon),

When I filled up today, I saved the equivilent of $3.64!!

not much I know, but every little helps!

I hope they stay low until spring. My Ranger (winter beater) gets worse mileage than my Mach 1.

Friday night I had a half tank of gas.......The stations were showing $1.59....
Saturday I took her for service and wanted gas- It was $1.75

Now its stable at $1.69...That is $23 for me to fill her.
Dang gas companies- my car drinks gas like a wino on ripple! and I can't seem to stay home anymore.

The kicker is, this time of year they add methanol to the gas to lower emissions, and my mileage drops big time because of it. :angry:

I am getting laughs- I used to laugh about the bronco drinking gas and only having to fill the olds every blue moon or so......
The mustang is always empty- I am told from all the aimless driving I do.
$1.71 isn't soooo bad, but still! If it could be $1.51 last week......
