So Calif - at a normal (not the cheap, not the overpriced) station - 3.959 for 87 octane last night.
Haven't seen under 3.50 for months (but we have lots of gas taxes added on here).
For gasoline: 1,59 euro per litre. How many litres go into a gallon?
3.79 L/gallon ---> 3.79x1.59 = 6.03 euro/gallon.
1 euro is now approx. 1,5681 dollar, so that'd be: 9.46 dollars a gallon.
I'm driving on diesel (?), which is a tad cheaper at 1.20 euro/L or 7.1 USD/gallon
pricing by Liter - does anyone else remember when the gas prices went over 99.9 cents and the pumps could not handle it but they could change to count liters pumped instead of gallons so the stations used pricing/pumping by the Liter until their equipment could be replaced?
It just jumped 10 cents to $3.35 here yesterday, probably will go up some more today or this weekend.

Here in Nova Scotia this morning with the weekly price setting we are paying 133.9 per liter and at 4.5 litres per gallon imp. it comes out to around $6.02 Canadian per gallon. (Our gallons are bigger but I believe that would still be around $5.50 per US gallon.)
And here in FL, we have no trains or subways...you have to have a car...really sucks considering I drive a Ford Expo and just paid around $80 to fill up.... Im going to take my 'extra' check that Bush is handing out and open up a gas card, thats where mine is going. Fucking bastards!

So, you can also take a bicycle to get there . 10 miles is totally doable, unless you need to climb a huge mtn or have to cross a crazily busy intersection w/o lights
(for the record I've cycled in NYC, Paris, London and even São Paulo.. it's all about making clear who's boss )

Why I'm going to find housing within run/bike distance of work in San Diego...

Apparently it's supposed to hit $1.40 by the end of this summer, and all the way up to $2.40 in the next two years.
One gallon is 3.8 liters, if that helps.

Ya but a motorcycle can only be used a)in warm weather and b)when it's not raining.
I thought of getting one too, but decided it wasn't worth it when there's snow on the ground a third of the year

I guess rounding up 1/10 of a cent would have made too much sense?

Not true You just have to accessorize correctly (hand/foot warmers, rain suits, etc). Or you could just move to the Southwest and deal with severe dehydration from riding too much.

I guess rounding up 1/10 of a cent would have made too much sense?
as I recall, the old mechanical pumps couldn't handle dollars and cents - it was only cents and tenths of cents so they couldn't calibrate to something like 1.05/gallon - you were either 1.0 or 1.1 -- and that's 0.10/gallon difference and no in between. So they set the price per liter and calculated the pumped volume in liters.
Gas Prices....how much are you paying where U R
