You do realize that prices jumped up quite a bit the past couple of days due to the hurricane, not "****ing people with the SUVs driving up demand with less supply..."... Don't you?

You also appear to be crying just as much, if not more, than those SUV owners you mock...

A suburban is a truck? Or at least mine is?



Anyways, Today on the way to the piercing place the gas ranged from $109.99 a Litre, to $119.99 a Litre.

What the hell is that?

I remember when $0.60 cents for a Litre was a lot.

I remember when my dad was complaining that gas prices hit $0.49/L. Wow that was a long time ago.

yeah, I realize that gas is up because refineries were shut down as a result of a hurricane. But before the hurricane, it was still 2.69 here... and YES that is high, now its just outrageously high....

maybe it's just colorado, but every damn person has a giant SUV

Um, what the hell. Today I've driven from my house, to downtown, to UBC, to SFU, to Surrey, covering the most active places in the entire city in a huge, neat triangle, and the worst I saw was $1.13.

You misread.

It's $1.09 right now at the Coast Meridian Petrocan and I need gas. And I fill on 89. Sigh.

Thats what I said.

I put the decimal in the wrong place. 109.99 = 1.09 99
In Port Moody it was 113.99 = 1.13 99

In Austin it's about $2.40. I'm in Memphis right now and it's about $3.20. Of course, we drove around for awhile and every gas station except for one was completely out of gas.
