Exactly. My city is $1.30/L so that almost $5 a gallon. So WTF are you Americans bitching about? A cheep house in my City costs $450,000.

Houses here cost that, mine was built in 1979, too.

My F150 was $91.xx to fill this last time, 21 gallon tank - I'm in the 4.01 and up bracket

EDIT; I just realized that's $4.30/gal, I voted wrong 0.0

Some places in Sioux Falls is still 3.59, but very few. Most are 3.79 for 87-89. Caseys is here at 3.79 for 90.

I got premium last week for 3.92 94 octane at the one place that has it, as the sunny gets 15 more mpg on it if I set the ignition to weanie mode.

All the damn investors are selling off gold and platinum and dropping it into oil, as you see the price for precious metal have waned lately which is a false positive as the ecomomy is still sickening, however there may be a good time coming up to jump the bull and by some gold before the price assends, the way I see it as the investors get jumpy with oil goes south if it does the money will move back to metals.

Gas over the last 2 years, has risen about 140% here versus 60% (with GST) in Canada. That's why were bitching.
