The word stimulus sounded like a dangerous words to me before I knew what it meant.

Oh... were going to get stimulated alright! Petrol prices are up by about $1. per gallon so far and O'Biden already stated were going to get hit with a tax increase!!

 

[PP Mguire]

Gas already hit $3 here, up from 1.80 when he took office.

And here we are sad gas reached $0.552 USD for premium. $0.52 for regular. I remember when it was like $0.18 premium.

 

[PP Mguire]

If gas was 18c for 93 octane I'd rock it just because.

 

[Joe C]

.18¢ for premium??? Hell... I'd pay .55¢ for premium in a heart beat

 

[Wallaby Dan]

Last i paid was 2.31. That was a few weeks ago.

 

[Trotter]

Paid 2.69 this morning but I know it is higher elsewhere.

 

[Smart_Guy]

We use the European RON measurement, not the US AKI.

The premium here is 95 which is equivalent to ~91 in USA. Regular here is 91 against ~87 in USA which I believe is the minimum allowed over there.

Only these two grades are available here.

 

[Joe C]

We usually have Regular, a Mid Grade and a Premium Grade, along with some places that also have Ethanol

 

[PP Mguire]

Pretty much all gas these days has a small percentage of ethanol, then you have some with like 15% or whatever. Stations here in DFW offer 87, 91, and 93. Some even offer E85.
