This equates to a whopping $4.46 US per gallon. I wish I could pay your cheap $3.50 a gallon instead.

Filled up the X5 with 82 liters costing me $115 Canadian or about $97 US.

What was your price a year ago...in the US the average was 1.87 was up to 3.xx last week. Nice little increase. Everyone assumes the US is crying about the actual price.....we aren't, not so much as we want to know why the rediculous increases.

Say your 4.46 cost went up at the rate the US did...you'd pay nearly $6.00 this time next year.
