Petrol price at your local gassy?

[Trumpess]

Dissadvantage of living in the boo wops i guess eh

Just be glad you don't live further away in the whop whops. The further it is to travel to get the fuel there, the more expensive it is.

[Pogo2]

No, no it wasn't, petrol has never been over $200 per litre.

Should have been 212.9 cents per litre. But hey, the ways it going who knows what we will be paying next year!

It would be cheaper per litre.....

One that will be for sale very soon because i cant afford to run it.

[cowboyz]

not so long ago you were saying you wouldnt care when it hits $5 /litre so what do you care?

[Grub]

233.9 cents yep....what choice do i have.

I wonder how far from hom you have to go to get back down to $2.129? Which is closer to your place, Culverden, Cheviot or Waipara? I'm guessing that only Cheviot is likely to have gas at city prices ... hardly makes 35km each way to save 21c/litre worth it does it.

[JATZ]

Don't know exactly wot it costs per litre here,gave up looking long ago, but it's about $60 odd bucks to fill the tank and I'll get about 450k's for that

[CB ARGH]

Yeah In West Auckland it's alright. 2.13... Thirty bucks of gas in my Nissan Pulsar get's me about... 100km? Not even sure TBH. Can't wait to fill the CBR up for the first time

Either amberley or cheviot, so just end up paying the local gassys silly prices.


Mmmm indeed it is not worth it as it is very much out of my way.

I'm trying to dsave for a after year 2000 bike, use less gas etc, but cant save with fuel at this price.

I will care sure who wouldnt. but tyou gotta pay it regardless.

This will help put today's prices into perspective.

I read a report today on the gas crisis (if that's what it is) with an amusing chart of the real cost of a barrel since 1861. It started out at about US$300 a barrel! Just as well folks didn't have cars in the 1860s. Imagine how valuable $300 was to people back then. Buy a small town for that.

By 1900 it was down to about $200. Didn't drop much though until WWII. From the 1940s it was smooooth cruising in V8s through the happy days of the 1950s and 1960s. That's the cheapest period.

Another report pointed to the inevitable US$150 being a key threshold after which lifestyles globally will change. They used an unusual phase like, the Suppliers price would become destructive to demand [I sensed a subtle hint to OPEC in there]

Oh yeah. If you don't like today's prices. Just wait a few months and you will look back and LOVE today's prices.

[nico]

mabie is should round up using the jewei decimal system so $2.13 per ltr and doing it is style as well ho the red onda 380km almost using all the resurve

[imdying]

You are getting almost double the k's for same money, how i envy you.

Yes, but you live 400 metres away from some of the best biking roads in the country.

[RC1]
