Big oil claims it's caused by Irans threat to the Straits of Hormuz. Made the trip from Arkansas to Joliet yeaterday. $3.07 per gallon in Missouri and $3.47 here in Joliet.
What a crock, 90% of US imports are from Canada and Mexico via pipelines
Wayneman...
You gotta specify the prices you are giving are bloody liters!!!!!!!
How many of them in a gallon?
Don't we live in the Lucky Country... or what?!
The only place that uses gallons is the US , its funny sometimes when they drive up here and think that we are paying 1.22 a gallon and fill up only to find out about litres and exchange rates
I love my friends who bitch and complain about gas prices, and how they are getting screwed by the oil companies, butthey drive around large 4x4 trucks that get 8 to 10 mpg. Keep filling up your gas guzzler guys! That'll teach the oil companies!
Thats almost the same for UK prices if you swop the $ for £ symbols... £1.45-ish per litre for Deisel, £1.37-ish per-litre for 90 RON unleaded.
In other words close to £7 per gallon!! (that would be an unthinkable amount of bucks per gallon in another county...)
If only our government would deem changing their fuel tax to a variable rate to try and keep the pump price with less fluctuations for the purposes of helping the economy and working peoples/companies here...
