What's Your Petrol Price? (Don't go to Scam Antionio TX!!!)

Did you know? According to DOT studies, places like Scam Antonio, New Fork, Dumbver, Chickenago, and other Big Cities In The States can charge you A Lot Of Money for Petrol!

Ok, sorry if I insulted anyone in those cities, it's not about you. It's just not fun to be ripped off for fuel. Forget having a gallon of petrol for a top 2,00$ - some places charge up to 4,70$ for that much. That's not good.

Feel free to post your petrol rates, your vehicle's meter-to-liter efficiency ratings and of course octane ratings as well. Like anybody in hell still buys "Super Premium"

Denver Colorado
I dunno, around 0,635$ a litre, that's 2,39$ a gallon.
Getting 17 KPL or 40 MPG city octane 70
Going 32km/weekday, but that's about to change (moving!).

Did you know Jet Fuel has a lower octane rating than petrol for motor vehicles? Say someone with a "Jet Fuel Only" label on his fuel port... I'm getting "Solid Fuel Only" labels printed up in hopes I can save some monies.

One dollar and sixty something cents a gallon in the Portland, Oregon area for regular, last time I checked.

Trying to work your way up the Illuminati ladder by gathering data so THE CONSPIRACY can fix prices, eh

Yeah, the local Shell station I use (used to be an Estby before it was converted back into a Texaco, before being absobred by Shell) is $1.63 for 87 octane gasohol (>=10% Ethanol by volume).

I've been going to that same station for the last two years, except for the short period of time it was closed for conversion into a Texaco, and then into a Shell, or during work, when I'm coming back from a couple deliveries (imagine if you will, delivering pizza in a t-top IROC-Z Camaro).

I'm just waiting for regular unleaded to come down around $1.53, before I start filling up with 89 octane gasohol. I've tried premium for a couple months, but I get better gas mileage and performance using 89 octane with Bosch Platinum +4 spark plugs (Chevy's LB9-305 cid TPI V8).
