In Australia its:

REG - $1.26
MID - $1.30
PREM - $1.35

This is per litre are you talking Gallons? The conversion is 1 gallon = 3.785412 litres. That means the 1 Gallon of PREM would cost $5.12 in Australia. The conversion rate between USD and AUD is about .76 so it would cost you $3.89 in USD. I guess US and Australia are fairly close.

3.199 per gallon x 32 gallons = 102.368 dollars per tank. Approx 450 gallons per tank = 14 mpg. 14mpg / 3.199 per gallon = 22 cents per mile.

So it costs me about a quarter every mile...

Just saw this this morning, they are putting caps on gasline fill ups and some stations acrossed the country are only recieving 10% of their normal shipments. In Jackson Michigan a manager told us that we should top off our tanks now because they dont know when they'll be getting another fuel shipment. I'm not sure how much of this is actually true or going to happen, but its something to think about. I'm taking things with a grain of salt right now.

I was watching Fox news last night and I would like to shake the guys hand. He was telling it like it was. He said the gas companies and opec is blowing up the price because they want to and they should be ashamed to take advantage of people.

Not to sound like an a$$ but you americans should quit your whining, to put things in perspective for you, at about 3$ a gallon it works out to roughly 94 cents per cdn litre with the exchange (about 79 cents per american litre), now most of us canadians are paying at least 109.9 per litre, most pay more than that.
