Yea, "cheap gas"
People are increasingly driving larger lower MPG vehicles and not cars I guess partly because they perceive gas to be cheap. Really. I don't think it's ever been cheap to keep fuel in a motor vehicle ...

After spending a month in Canada this fall pulling my TT for 2000 miles and getting 9.5 MPG,I will never complain about prices of gas in NJ again since I averaged 1.29-1.35 per liter of regular gas in Canada which amounts to about $5 a US gallon! I hit new records in my Expedition for cost of a fill up-- $120- $127 each fill up!
Appreciate the fact that our gas prices in the US average HALF of Canada's per gallon!
Nope. Canada has its own currency. You converted litres to gallons but forgot to do the currency conversion.
1.29 per litre is 3.68 USD per US gallon.
In our hometown gas is 1.22 or about 3.48 USD per US gallon.
In our Old hometown (in ALberta) its around 99 cents per litre. or about 2.82 USD per US gallon.

My point is I feel sorry for Canadians paying the equivalent of DOUBLE for their gas compared to average price in the US! a Canadian citizen with Canadian wages doesn't benefit from the 25% reduced value of Canadian $ compared to US $. the same goes for Europe. We complain about gas prices but have some of the lowest prices in the World1
