petrol / gas prices

[shona]

if you are in orlando just now, how much is a gallon of petrol / gas[msnscared]?

[roger]

Between around $2.55 - $2.90 per gallon depending on the grade of fuel you put in, and the exact location. Rentals cars generally take the lowest grade of fuel.

FYI.

I filled my typical mini-van the other day (Dodge Grand Caravan from Dollar) with lowest octane fuel and it cost just over $50 from nearly empty.

If you google for "Orlando Gas Prices" you will find a site which lists prices all over the area.
The cheapest showing 4 hours ago is $2.68 on the OBT.

Just noticed that there is a great zoomable map feature and you can search for the gas station nearest to you.

Mind you the US gallon is approx. 20% smaller than our gallon measurement but still so much cheaper than in this country.

US gallon = 3.78 litres @ $2.66 = 70.3 cents per litre
UK gallon = 4.55 litres @ 70.3c/l = $3.20 per UK gallon

Average price of unleaded in a 10 mile radius of my home today is 117.2 pence per litre. Thomas Cook exchange rate today is USD 1.55 to GBP 1

So, that means a litre of unleaded at home is USD 181.66 compared to 70.3 cents in the US. We are 2.5 times the US price. (Unless my quick back of fag packet maths is wrong).
