    In southern Ontario it is $1.20 CDN per liter...

    Calculating... that's $4.50 a gallon... since CDN$ is pretty close to US$...

    But this is before President Obama pulls out of Nafta... :D It should go down for Canadians then...

    $1.279/L, works out to $4.84/gallon. Diesel is 4 cents more.

    An update on my road trip:

    Fremont, CA (East SF Bay) = $3.89
    Chinese Camp, CA (last gas station before Yosemite) = $4.39
    South Lake Tahoe, CA = $3.85
    Carson City, NV = $3.55
    Lee Vining, CA (back side of Yosemite) = $4.49
    Bishop, CA = $3.92
    Lone Pine, CA = $3.95
    Panamint Springs, CA (Death Valley) = $5.35 <-- only 103 octane available
    Stovepipe Wells, CA (Death Valley) = $5.75 Whoa!!
    Pahrump, NV = $3.65
    Las Vegas, NV = $3.55
    Seligman, AZ = $3.50
    Flagstaff, AZ = $3.40

    Funny how the further away from California I go, the cheaper the gas gets!

    Was 3.77 a gallon here in Middletown, NY Yesterday.
    I guess even higher today. Perhaps this will help get a few SUV off the road.

    I don't know!, it's been over a week since I filled up. Isn't it great to drive a car that get's such good gas mileage. I think its around 3.25 last time I filled up in Virginia Beach, VA.

    Oh, I see! :)

    We have no such thing in Italy, when i fill up my Fiat 500 I have to add an additive.

    In France I saw LRP at an extortionate price: € 1.80 per litre (£ 1.40) [$ 10.55 per USG]

    For what it's worth, gas up in Pompano Beach (Costco on Sample Rd.) was $3.62 today. I didn't stop, but I did note the sign as I went by.

    For what it's worth you might try the Racetrack stations over by Nova (can't remember the name of the North/South street that it's on, but it's just south of 595) or the one on SR-84 just east of I95.

    When I lived down that way, they were often the cheapest stations around.

    In my area of Canada (Vancouver), where gas prices approach the highest in Canada in part due to taxes, gas this morning was CAN $1.325 per litre.

    So ... a little math ....

    3.78 litres in a US gallon X 1.325 = CAN $5.009 per US gal = US $4.998 (exchange rate from XE.com).
