    Couple nights ago, gas prices in Ottawa, Canada hit $1.34/liter CAD for regular (87 octane).
    That's equivalent to just a little over $5/gallon USD, :eek:.
    You might see why I'm here.. hello all!

    welcome bro! I came to that realization when gas was 70 cents a liter :)

    never too late! Welcome

    edit: at least you guys didn't get it as bad as us, due to the new carbon tax we are at $1.413 / Liter

    Thanks Phil!
    I was watching the news today comparing prices nationwide and it's highest in BC.
    Sorry to hear about the new Carbon Tax. Ottawa was actually considering adopting the same system.. glad they havent. I wouldn't mind paying Carbon Tax though if the Gov't starts taking less money from my income :D

    Anywhoo..... Just did 626.8km on about 46liters give or take.
    I'd say about 60/40 (city/hwy) and had some on-ramp blasts :eek:
