    Default Gasoline Prices.

    I was driving to Rockland Maine,(a pretty cool name for guitar player to visit), and on the way I saw several Gas stations selling for $2.83/gal.
    Most of the ones around Augusta are in the $3.12 to $3.08 range right now.
    What are you guys paying around the US. I have been away from Canada for a couple of weeks and when I left it was on it's way down.

    We are STILL in the mid 3's up here in SV area. We are always higher than the rest of the state, which tends to be higher than a lot of other places overall. Grrr.

    I will be heading home tomorrow. On the way down on the NY thruway it was 395 down to 375 on the Mass Pike. They really gouge you on the thruways.
    My SUV is pretty good on gas and gets about 30 mpg, so I am pretty lucky.
    I heard on the news that there was a glut of gas because people are just not driving a lot. I hope this backfires on those gas gouging SOBs. It has really hurt an already fragile economy.

    1 gallon = 3,785 litre.

    Here in Europe (Germany) we pay 1,52€ per litre which is 5,75€ per gallon which is per today's exchange rate of 1,34 = 7,70 USD/gallon.

    That is the reason why I go to work by train.
