WOW! fuel prices around here are getting rediculous. I saw $3.23 for on road diesel today. Seem like it's been going up about 10 cents a week. Got almost a 1000 gallons of off road fuel @ $2.87 the other day delivered to the shop. All I can say is :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

That sounds prety expensive. Here we are at about a dollar a litre for on road diesel and offroad about 80cents a litre , and gas around 95 cents a litre. Does anyone know the conversion from litres to gallons?

3.259 per gallon on road here. Was talking with guy today was saying that in MA off road went up .30 cents a gallon because it is now illeagal to run heating oil. Has to be low sulfer. So now there is heating oil, off road, and on road.:Banghead

Ha Ha Ha Ha. $3.65 a gallon. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Try £1.03p a litre for size (DERV) Roughly 5 litres in a gallon.

So ... £1.03 x 5 = £5.15p a Gallon

So thats $10.71 a Gallon we pay here. Thats English Gallons which is about 5 litres.

Any Question?

Thank you :drinkup I was unsure how many litres are in a US Gallon.

$8.04 or so a Gallon.

Bit better but still more than double. Ovcourse this is All TAX paid to the British Government. :mad: Just the way it is here :cool:

Red Diesels Cheap as chips but again, TAX free.

One reason it's going up around here is because they're probably switching to a winter blend. Don't know about the other side of the world.:beatsme
