I know that the price of gas is completely out of control. I am currently paying $1.20 per litre up here in Newfoundland, for supreme gas. That works out to be about $4.80 per gallon. It is making it more and more difficult to go for a spin whenever you want to. There is approximately 46% taxes on a litre of gas. The experts say at the petroleum board that if oil goes up by $1.00 per barrel, then the price of gas should only go up by .08 cents per litre. Why is it then, that, this week when oil went up a buck per barrel, gas went up 3 cents per litre. That's about 12 cents per gallon. We are getting reemed by both the Government and the Petroleum Terrorists.
Gas Prices Up Here!!!

Stagerulz...ya can save a little bit by going with 87 octane. Do some searches here....most everyone runs it. No pinging...no performance issues........and cheaper.Here in the Inland N.W. U.S.A. were paying about $3.09 for 92 octane.....
Maybe not as bad as some? Maybe worse than others?
We are all still "Getting Reemed"
No need to spend the extra cheese on premium.

$3.27 for 91 some times i hate having the dam camaro
Wrong.
Th busa only calls for 87 octane nothing more.
Mine says "AT LEAST 87"....I notice a subtle difference in throttle response with the cheap stuff.
My owners manual says, " a premium fuel of at least 92 octane should be used, or serious engine damage could occur". This comes directly from the specifications and regular maintenance section. I wonder if the 99 is different in that way? I didn't mean to offend anyone. I also have the Suzuki maintenance manual from 99, and it says the same thing.
GAS is $ 3.55 for 9/10 a gal. 94 octane Were i am

HE HE HE .. in Hawaii .. we got this silly gas Cap law that governs the wholesale prices .. then it gets all messed up and filters thru to the consumer .. it got as high as $3.89 for 91 here in Oahu .. this week its around $3.49. supposed to go up .27 cents next week.. on the neighbor islands its at least .30 - .50 cents more.. Every week its different, like a roller coaster ride.
