odd, when we in Phoenix in late May, your price per gallon was about 30-40 cents cheaper than what it was up here in PA. I can say we have you beat at this point in time though, as one station is selling for 3.97 here in central PA, though some are as high as 4.09 a gallon right now, and rising fast...

Shhhessh, thanks for posting your good fortune!
We've been paying excess of $4 now for about 3 months in NorCal.
Right now, the Chevron by my house is $4.69 for reg. 89 octane...

Here in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada I paid $1.35.5 a liter this morning when I filled up. @ I think it is 4.5 l. per gallon that's $ 6.09 a Gal. 2 hours north of here in Montreal they're paying $1.52 a liter.

We just hit $4.00 down here in macon ga, we are not far off a major pipeline it helps a little in keeping us behind the rest of the nation on prices.

It is 3.785 litres per U.S. Gallon. You are paying $1.355/litre X 3.785 equals $5.13/U.S. gallon (rounded up) assuming our Cdn. dollar is about par. In Montreal they are paying about $5.75/U.S. gallon. Still high nevertheless.

Cheers

Here it is $1.40/L for gas and $1.37/L for diesel. But I'm sure it will go up soon as its been at the price for a while now. Well gas just went up 3 cents but the diesel stayed. So both will jump soon. Thats $5.19/gal for diesel and $5.30/gal for gas. I'm doing all I can to make my truck average at least 27mpg. I'm doing about 25 right now. Highway I'm at 30 but the intercooler should help that a bit.
