It's smaller than the imperial gallon of 4.54 but I doubt they care at the lower prices they are paying.

And I miss my .25 cent gas from the mid '60s. On the other hand I recall once seeing a cartoon in a very old book on the Ford Model T. A guy is staring at a pump and saying "Fifteen cents a gallon? That's highway robbery!"

I saw $3.55 at a station yesterday.

Pump it direct to the Buna estate Steve and I'll pay you double what you paid...how's that for a cool business arrangemment? :DL

A consumer pumps gasoline at a gas station in Sandy Springs, Ga. Already tumbling due to increased production and a boost in imports, gas prices could dip more as refiners start selling less-expensive winter fuel blends.

I remember my dad telling me how his friends used to tease him because my dad paid $0.26 per gallon of Arco White Gas. He was just throwing his money away!

Them days is gone. :nope:

Considering the money I'd have to spend on the pipes to get it there, not so much. :sunny:

I'll create a single mission with a convoy full of large tankers and no u-boats enroute....should be cost effective/cheap as chips :DL

When your daily commute is 60 miles a day, gas prices will bite you hard at 4.XX plus a gallon.

I used to drive 74 miles per day. When my company moves location (assuming im still here and not laid off), my 60 mile per day commute, will be upped to 80 miles per day.

So our prices don't seem so low to me.

What's the average commute for an average Joe drive in the UK? It can't be anywhere what were forced to drive here. Between those big ass busses, subways, trains, etc, all the mass transit that im assuming you have that we don't, leads me to think you can't be driving nearly as far.

Most of the gas stations around me are near $5.00 a gallon. :cry:

No, I guess your right on the average daily commute to work but just top make your day, I travel 1 1/2 miles.......but still by car and receive 42 pence per mile allowance :DL

Where do I apply for a captains position

Oh, you lazy bum! At 1.5 miles, i'd be riding a bicycle everyday! I'm guessing you fill up your gas tank.... once a month? :O:

Jim, I walked to school that far every day! Up hill both ways. :DL At that kid of mileage I think I would walk or ride by bike to work. I drive a total of 14 miles a day. Makes high gas prices a bit easier.

Whilst in the force my daily commute was 22 miles per day so I was forced to use the car (either that or face the chow of travelling by metro train and changing in and out of uniform twice per shift) so I suppose old habits die hard....besides, I'm not getting any younger, I'm a pensioner now :DL

:yep:

I've been riding the bus during the winter, but now that it's warming up I'll be riding my bike seven miles each way to band practice. And suffering mightily for the first few weeks.
