What are you Paying for Gasoline? Petrol Prices Around the World

[Craig H.]

In Colombia Southamerica, we have 2 types of fuel for ours cars.

a) Regular: Low octane, low quality, low price
b) Super: High octane, high quality, high price.

For Regular Fuel today we are paying U$2,15 per galon. For Super Fuel U$2,85

Our goverment says that prizes will keep increasing until each colombian pay as a consumer from an importer country around the world. As US is not an importer country, thats reason another countries pay more for fuel.

So must be good to clarify if your country is importer or isn't

Carlos, forgive me if I misunderstood you, but the USA imports LOTS of oil. The political and economic impact can be far reaching.

Here in Kitchener Ontario, unleaded regular was $0.773/litre (no idea what that converts to in US dollars per US gallon).

All I know is, it's too much.......but then again, diesel fuel at the station next door was advertised at $0.802/litre, and has been consistently higher than gas for quite some time now.

I think diesel is made from same fraction of oil as heating fuel, hence reason for rise during winter.
Also, additives to keep it from turning to petroleum jelly in the cold.

The downward spiral broke the $1.90 barrier! OK, $1.89.9, but still......I have to start refilling at that truck stop........

Last week, it went from ~$1.84 in the morning to $2.09 in the afternoon. A United Dairy Farmers (local min-mart franchise) on the way home still had $1.85 and people were 3-4-5 deep at each pump.

Assuming you filled an almost empty tank, say 8 gallons, you saved a whole $2! All you had to do was waste an hour and jocky around all the other motorists trying to save a buck... I just don't get the "it's 4 cents cheaper over there, run!" mentality.....

Now if I had a 200 gallon gas tank.....

I own a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 Conversion with all the bells and whistles. Payed $2.35 a gallon on Monday. The particle fill up was $58.32.
