BP=British Petroleum.

it is around 3.80 for 87 unleaded. i just did recently start driving, and am regretting the first time i will have to fill up.

they arent even British Petroleum any more, theyre part of a conglomerate who own Amoco and some others..



the latest issues are security at gas stations, considering the costs of fill-ups..
many pumps still stop at $100 which will need to change.
some need to shut off the pump, pay, then start again to fill the tank.

[400exrider989]

its a 1.50 for low grade here in alberta

[400exrider989]

a litre that is

[roundsy]

we are at about 1.25/litre for 87 in ontario which is about 4.73/US gal

in light of the fuel issues/crisis, i recently chased down a movie i saw when i was a bit younger called The Last Chase, starring Lee Majors. ( showing my age.. )

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082642/

it was kind of simple, but back then it was awsome..
the six million dollar man gets mad at the "bureaucracy" and decides to go blazing across country in the last car, which happens to be a porsche 917/10.

Just in one day gas went up $.10 here. It was $3.79, now it's $3.89. This is absolutely insane. Last night on the news, they said gas prices are supposed to be $7 next year. :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2:


Our country would pretty much shut down if they were that high. Truckers probably wouldn't drive and airlines would shut down.

1908 (as the Anglo-Persian Oil Company)
1954 (as The British Petroleum Company)

as i mentioned, it was "british petroleum", but its changed and i dont get your point about allies?

although England is our ally, BP is no more an ally to the US than Citgo..

[hondaracer31]

Trucker won't stop driving, everything else will just cost more. I know of one truck driver who filled up at the local truck stop yesterday and it cost him $2000!!:eek2: :huh

[450raider]

in my town weve got an exxon, conoco, 4BPs, 3shells, a marathon, and a couple of local places where its always like $.2 cheaper (but i hear their gas is watered down) so if anyone knows which of those brands may be american made ill gladly drop BP and go to it....

exxon, conoco and marathon are US based companies, but dont let that skew your opinion.
none of them would give $0.02 to save the US economy, so i just go to who has the best value, regardless of who owns what.

if that attitude bothers some, then explain why you'd own a honda or any other non-US product.(sony, nike, etc. etc.)

jerks like marathon and other US based companies, wont turn up the refinery output in my area and im sure they havent done anything to help elsewhere.(nor has any other fuel provider..)

they are not a friend to the avg. consumer and dont so easily give them the benefit of doubt.( or your money..)

went from 3.76 to 3.99 here in indy yesterday in about 6 hours :( this sux :mad:
