Cars are harder on gas during winter, mostly because of all the idling to heat it up, so it's a bonus to have it cheap during winter.
It is still 79.9 here and I'll take whatever price under 80.
It really sucked when it was 1.30, so 50 cents per litre (about 22$ per fill up) in my pocket is better than the money hungry gas giants.
I predict an average low of 71.

I Would be happy If it stayed between 70-80 all year long I hope it doesn't go to low then were going to be spolied and be pissed when it goes back up.

I saw 85.6 at the cheapest station in NB last night (Mr Gas on Lakeshore), so I assume we're due another few cents drop over the next few days.

As counter-productive as it sounds, I'm really starting to consider the possibility of stockpiling some gas and rotating through it slowly or just adding stabilizer to it.

I used to buy gas at that Sunoco all the time when I lived in Little Italy.

Nice and close to Tunney's too...

I'm sending you some gas cans and cash, Ian. :D

The best we can do here right now is 85.3.

Running the good stuff right now in preparation for the SRI. 90 cents a litre feels pretty good all things being equal (sadly the gas mileage is going to hell using the remote starter trying to get the car warmed up quicker :P)

Just before I took my Corvette in for storage it had a half tank and I filled it to the top with $30.00 of 94 Octane. Thats pretty good considering on average that car will take $80 to fill on 94 and get 350km :lol:

it's been floating round the 75 - 79 cents a litre here in brampton.. have yet to see it below 74 unless I ventre further out of the city.

84 cents in North Bay today. I'm watching the needle move a little faster cause I can't seem to stop having fun with 4WD. :lol:

We've had a bit of snow here lately (about a foot at least) and well, the truck seems to be doing great on all fronts. It sure as hell frustrates people who are trying to claw their way up a hill when you do your best "no effort mountain goat" impression. :lol: :lol:
