Don't know what you're paying but here Regular is $3.75 and Premium is $3.89, and we don't have a bunch of garbage additives in our fuel. We can also go across the line (I live on the border w/ Mexico) and get fuel for a dollar less a gallon, but waiting in line for 45 min. to get back across is something neither I nor my carbed engine like.

Please quit complaining this every other week!
It's 1.60 EUR/liter and that's what you can expect as well. It's only matter of time. But in that time it will be 2.50e/l here...:-( _________________ Racing is Life - everything before and after is just waiting!

In Melbourne Australia we are paying $1.65 per litre that equates to $3.95 per gallon. Its risen 40 cents this year already. I'm glad an 02 is cheap to run. Beaner7102 _________________ 1971 - 2002 RHD VIN 1653940. Agave (stock with Pertronix & 32/36 Weber) - "Cactus"

I just got back from filling up and it was 4.58 a gallon for premium where I filled up but on the way home i saw a place with gas at 4.62 for premium so I guess on average in honolulu it's about 4.60 a gallon for premium. I gotta say you guys in Europe make me feel lucky!

I drove to Mt. view today and filled up my tank for almost 12 gallons of premium. 58.00 and change. It's stupid....but, it could be worse. I think about the guys riding Ford Excursions( my neighbor) and the like. They need at least 140 dollars to fill up. _________________ 73 Tii. My Daily driver

I haven't filled up a tank in a month or so, still making 70 MPG or more cruisin town on my 7hp motorcycle. :)
we've gotta adapt some way, just like Europe has done. _________________ 1974 2002, 4224479, #74 EP/FSP, daily driver, track toy

I see people, particularly in airports, quite happy to $3~$4 for a cup of coffee at stabucks.
What's the problem? _________________ Les
