How much you paying, or should I say getting ***** for, for gas in your area? Where I am from we are now paying $1.12 CDN for just regular (89) octane gas. Not too sure what the conversion is to gallons, but all I know is that it is brutal.

They also said that gas will be going up here again before the weekend to $1.20-1.30 per litre. It is already up on the east coast of Canada. They are trying to blame it on the flooding in New Orleans, but we only import 8% of our oil from the states. The other 92% is refined in Canada....so I call BS on this price increase.

Pretty sad that I remember pumping gas back in high school in 1996 and gas was at 42.9 cents per litre. :cool:
 
yeah that is brutal, i pay like 2.89 a gallon american, 20 bucks gets me a week of gas 30 fills my tank from E to F and lasts me less than a week cause i drive more knowing i have more gas...such a bad bad cycle....cant wait till they replace gasoline, makes me wanna buy the honda hybrid and laugh at every1 else, but then get laughed at when i floor it....vicious cycle...where art thou hydrogen?
 
i filled up last night before i got home for $2.85 gallon (premium) and when i woke up the same station was $3.00 and when i got home tonight i noticed it was at $3.55. WTF??!?!?!?!?!?!!?!? went up almost a whole dollar in 24 hours!!!!
 
<~~~ 2.89 in staten island NY...bet its up to 3.00 by the time i wake up... WTF ... haha glad i own a mazda and not a hummer now!!!
 
it ranges from $3.00-$3.39 here in charlotte, nc (that was last nite) i think now its around $3.19-$3.69........I LOVE IT, people are soooooo over reacting-good ole america!
 
i wondered why the gas stations were crazy ass busy monday night........prices went up like $.50 over the past two days here in MA.....


Least I filled the P5 monday morning like i do every week......going to go fill the Jetta now......

i saw on the news this morning some atlanta stations were charging well over $5.50 per gallon but i guess that was just gouging and not indicative of where all prices will be in the immediate future.

they also said the 2 pipelines that were shut down by the hurricane were gonig to be turned back on today so maybe that will help keep 87 octane under 3 bucks? would be nice...
 
In Puerto Rico prices are .63 cents per liter for regular 87 and like .71 cents premium. I'm sure it will go up cuz it was the cheapest in my area.
 
For the smart asses on here, ya I am not the first one to notice that gas was expensive......thanks for pointing that out 'tips'. Just trying to see what certain prices were across North America. Don't have to be a F'n dick about it.
 
how many more of these ******* threads are we gonna start?!?!?!?! Gas is expensive & theres nothing you can do about it but buy it because we as Americans are dependant on it......

Quit whining....
 
134.9 cents per liter as of yesterday ! Which is about 6$ USD a gallon. This s*** is all for regualar 89 octane.

Sorry, just wanted to know what 3rd gen Protege owners were paying cause we are paying like $5 US a gallon up here. I didn't know there was that many threads already going.....guess I should have searched first. Mods, you can lock this thread or erase it if you want.
 
I wasnt trying to be an ass or anything but there are like 10 going on. Plus theres nothing we can do about gas prices except pay them. Just think, in 10, 20, 30 years, what we'll be paying for gas & you'll feel better about buying it today...
