  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

My local gas price is now 1.99. What's yours?

$1.899 in Cincinnati.

And that price does include all taxes.

If you cross the Ohio River, gas is ~$0.25 more/gal in Kentucky. I presume the difference is a higher gas tax in KY.
 
Cheapest I have seen in Silicon Valley...2.39/gallon....most are around 2.47 now
 
There are a few stations in Streator, Illinois where it's down to $1.59/gallon.

Think about that. Only a dollar and a half for a gallon of gas.
 
There are economists and analysts on cable news babbling about how bad it is that gas prices are down and how it will negatively impact jobs and the economy. Huh? I don't get it. How can lower gas prices possibly be bad for anyone? Except maybe Oil Co. CEO's who might have to postpone that new golden toilet seat on their yacht.

I wonder if all the other commodities (think food etc.) that skyrocketed in price supposedly due to high transportation costs will start to come down now as well?
 
87.9/L in Saskatchewan. Let the good times roll!

Also, mandatory full-serve gas stations were mentioned... I have a friend in New Jersey, and full-serve only applies to gasoline. He drives a VW TDI and people can pump their own diesel if they want to.

I prefer to pump my own gas... even though the one near my house is full-serve, it's still among the cheapest gas stations in the city so I don't mind in this case. Plus, a 19/20 year old guy who works there is absolutely in love with my car! :)
 
I paid $1.95 per gallon yesterday here in South Carolina.
 
I just filled up my car. £1.059p per litre. It's not been this cheap since 2007 ish.

Damn it's cheap your way! Where abouts are you? It's still about £1.11 for me.

I made a mistake, it was 107.9 p, 2p more than I wrote above. I dug out the receipt earlier this evening trying to gather all the loose change I have in my pockets. But, that notwithstanding, it's very cheap at the moment, yes.
 
And once again, the lovely folks in Albany have taxed our gasoline so much that the people of the State of New York are still seeing little to no relief on gas prices.

I paid $2.77 per gallon today at my local Valero station. That is actually several cents lower than both the Kwik-Fill and Hess in North Chili, which are charging $2.81 per gallon.....

This is one of those times that I wished that I lived anywhere else besides New York State.....
 
Ah, Sir Ron - remember the pot holes our fuel taxes help fill - allegedly!
 
Lads don't moan, I just done some quick maths and I am paying $7.86 per gallon! Now that is real fuel duty for you!
 
I've been watching the per Litre posts and knew how much more Canada and the UK, EU were paying in comparison.
 
Side note - why does the US have different gallon to the UK? What is that all about?
 
We have 128Fl Oz Gallon, not a metric Litre.

We have a very screwed up system - started to go metric, - speedometers are in MPH and Km/h, Soda Pop, Bottled Water, Wine, Distilled Liquor are packaged in Litre/ML, Automotive Engines are in Liters, but Milk, Beer, Gasoline are still "English" units of measure - 1/2 Pint, Pint, Quart, Gallon.

We did not go gently into the night on measurements.
 
Oh, and the US Standard is a Short Ton (2000 Lbs) as opposed to a Long Ton (2240 Lbs)

Then there's the metric tonne (1000Kg)


Welcome to OnlineConversion.com
What is the difference between the short ton, long ton, and metric ton.

The British ton is the long ton, which is 2240 pounds, and the U.S. ton is the short ton which is 2000 pounds.

Both tons are actually defined in the same way. 1 ton is equal to 20 hundredweight. It is just the definition of the hundredweight that differs between countries. In the U.S. there are 100 pounds in the hundredweight, and in Britain there are 112 pounds in the hundredweight. This causes the actual weight of the ton to differ between countries.

To distinguish between the two tons, the smaller U.S. ton is called short, while the larger British ton is called long.

There is also an third type of ton called the metric ton, equal to 1000 kilograms, or approximately 2204 pounds. The metric ton is officially called tonne. The SI standard calls it tonne, but the U.S. Government recommends calling it metric ton.
 
God damn, so you try to have the same old system as us but make it all 'Merican by playing with it! :p


Pretty please come join us in the metric world! It's really a lot of fun and much simpler to work out! :p
