In the SF Bay Area it's over $2.50/gal for REGULAR. It will be at $3.00
before the summer peaks.

I think the Bay area needs to have their own special fuel blended just
for them, since they have different weather than the rest of the west
coast. The left has had control in California so long that it would
take 10-20 years to fix the messes they have created, if you could
even convince the people that there is a problem.

I visited England (at least as liberal as California) about 3 years
ago and was astonished to find that the "subjects" there felt noble
about paying about $4.50 a gallon in fuel because they felt the high
prices encouraged conservation. I got blank stares of disbelief when
I asked them if they felt raped by the government due to the $3 per
gallon tax they were assessed.

Oh those were the days. Cheap fuel, low taxes. Now Tony B Liar wants
to add another tax increase in Sept to buy a few more bombs.

87 octane is $98.5 a litre in BC. That's nearly four dollars
a gallon, or about $3 US a gallon. You still have it cheap...

Please excuse my ignorance but What do you use 87 octane for?

you visited a different england to the one I live in then.

We currently have threats of a fuel protest due to fuel being too
expensive at about 85p(about $1.55USD) per litre. About $5.89 per US
gallon, or about $6.98 for an imperial/UK gallon.

Scary thing is I'm looking at at Alfa (either a 33, a 75 2litre TS, or a
155 narrowbody) for fuel economy purposes. Not usually most people
thoughts when they look at Alfas, I admit, but far better than my
current car, and probably as much fun to drive with better handling
thrown in.
