Default It's expensive here in the UK too!

Hi folks!

Yesterday I paid £70 to fill my TT up with regular 95 octane, that's almost $140 at the current exchange rate......

Our gas is priced by the litre and approx £1.20 on average, that's £10.90 per gallon ($21.80 approx) although the Imperial gallon is 20 fluid ounces against the US gallon which is 16 fluid ounces.

That means we are paying the equivalent of $17.44 for a US gallon!!

Cheers,

Default Which is why don't bitch about gas prices, or let others bitch within earshot.

We in the US (besides Alaska) still have it pretty good.

Currently paying $4.29/gallon for ethanol free gas in Burlington - actually cheaper than most E10 stations. Think I found the ONLY station around not selling E10.

I've heard there isn't much difference in milage w/ E10, I say I'm getting about 5-6mpg better w/o it.

Default Yeah, but there is no where to drive to that far out in Alaska......

Also, there is a real good reason alot of folks move that far away.
