Colorado has always been cheap and I think its because we happen to be in the middle of the country so there is a lot of transportation going through - but also there is ethonol in our gas and the taxes might have something to do with it. Today I noticed it creeped up - the station where I went to yesterday is now $2.72. I see other stations are going between $2.75 - $2.79.

In Virginia Beach most of the stations are around $2.87. Shell seems to be a
couple of cents higher. As you go into Norfolk, it goes up three or four cents. In Portsmouth it's five or six cents higher. As you go north (Tappahannock or Mathews) it seems to come down.

BTW - we have optional toll roads around Denver - "bypasses" that go around the busier freeways. The major interstates have no tolls in this state and most states in the west.

Here it is 7 Rand per litre. So you guys from the US would not pay per Gallon here you would pay over $1 per litre.

F*cking expensive here.

It topped out at $1.48 on Friday here in Adelaide, but i filled up at $1.32 per litre on Monday. So A US gallon is just under 4 litres or there abouts..is'nt it? so that puts it around $5 bucks a gallon give or take the variations day by day.
