Oil at $22 a barrel, when do we get .97 cent gas?

[Amun Ra]

Sub $2.00 reg unl here in SFLA.

Where?

Gas Buddy says there is a sams club in Oklahoma City at a sams club for $1.17 per gallon.

Low £1.20 in the UK, no real change yet, should drop to £0.95 allowing the how much is tax but doesn't normally take this long for a price drop / increase to hit the pumps so maybe not.

Is that per liter?

Yes, so c.65% tax in UK, vs c.15% in US

Yeah, half of states have a gas tax of $.30/gal or more, in PA it's $58.7.

Actually accounting for inflation gas has remained remarkably static in price. For example in high school I distinctly remember $.99/gal gas (late 80s/early 90s), plug that into the inflation calculator and you get $2.00 which is what it cost in that part of the country 3 months ago.

If you're sneaky, you could just fill up on red diesel and save like 70% When I was in Ireland, there were guys all over the countryside with tanks of red diesel that they would sell to all their friends for so much cheaper than filling up at the station.

Don't know about Ireland, but here in the U.S. if you use enough diesel to make it worth the hassle to do that (i.e. trucker or some kind of commercial operation) then you get inspected for it pretty regularly and your chances of getting caught are high enough to make it not worthwhile. If it's for your diesel Passat....meah, even if I save a dollar a gallon it's not worth the hassle or even the diesel smell on your hands that you can't seem to wash off for at most a few hundred dollars a year in savings. Our marine diesel here is red/untaxed and I could easily fill up a few jerry cans when I fill up the boat, even have them on the boat for Bermuda trips, but just not worth it.
