Not in my area, but in my state.
5.40, yup, thats five dollars and fourty cents. http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-590490 In my area, last i looked, it was 4.20, though I paid 4.30 in Orange. |
Well there's always worse. Here in Holland you pay €1,74 per liter which comes down to $9,50 per gallon.. :nope:
|
In the UK we are now averaging over £1.30 a litre...absolutely disgraceful and nothing short of legalised robbery :stare:
|
Average is AU$1.45/L at the moment. About AU$0.10 more for premium 98 Octane.

$1.56 litre diesel . Brisbane = $5.90 a gallon .

Well, here in blighty diesel used to be cheaper than petrol, this, encouraged by the government, led to many people buying diesel cars. Over time diesel became more expensive with the addition of higher fuel duty. dutylolz. I'd expect your model to follow the same lines.... be afraid, be very afraid. Currently 1 litre of diesel can be as much as £1.41.9 (indeed higher in some places), with petrol being about 5ppl cheaper. in real terms it means filling up from empty will cost about £130.00 per tank (89L). This is with the bog-standard economy diesel fuel, never mind about your V-power from shell or whatever. It makes me rage every time I get rapped at the pump. |

That's kinda weird.. Or are there tax-benefits when driving diesel in the UK? Cause here in the Netherlands, diesel is quite a bit cheaper than petrol, but you pay more road-tax (or whatever it's called in English). So you only benefit from diesel when you're driving more than 30.000 km. |

Essentially, drivers here have been encouraged to buy diesel vehicles - the original cost of diesel in the UK was cheaper than petrol - diesel was hailed as more efficient and therefore greener and less polluting than petrol. So more people got diesel cars. The end result is that diesel is now more expensive than unleaded petrol, by a margin of at least 5 pence per litre on average. Quote:
* whilst this has made the road tax on some cars cheaper, it has made others more expensive. Eg. landrover discovery 2001 TD5 2.5L used to cost about £200 per year to tax. After the retrospective change in road tax back to 2001, the same vehicle is now about £400 to tax for the year. |

How many litres is a gallon anyway? Wikipedia gives 2 different types of US gallons. Crazy Americans with all your strange units... miles, feet, gallons, ounces... |
