Onroad had been 4 bucks for over a week now on this end of the island..
Unless it's the specific group of officers that routinely check trucks, law enforcement is generally oblivious to the fact that there are diesel cars and a difference in fuel..
They use some sort of electronic deally jobber to check the fuel here, and I guess gasoline really screws the thing up too. My neighbor had an old Chevy that he replaced the blown 6.2 with a 350.. They dipped him since it still had diesel badges on it.. The comment was made that it was an expensive boo boo..

After all the years of making fun of Canadian money, your turn has come I suppose..
.8 Imp Gallon = 1 US Gal, Correct?

It'll be brief, no doubt, so gots to go with it while we can.

Yup... 0.8327. 'Course we don't use the imperial gallon anymore anyways... which makes comparing fuel pricing and economy even more challenging.

Just be happy we aren't nuking you guys.. We dealt with Alanis Morissette since we also got Peter Jennings.. But Justin Beiber?? C'mon, what'd we do that was so bad?? If it was just a gag gift, fine.. But, don't be surprised if you don't get a little Charlie Sheen come next Christmas..

What about the all time worst... the four letter R word. RUSH.
I am a bass player and give the guy credit as he can play, so can the rest for that matter, but that voice = nails on a chalkboard.

4.29 gal here
No big deal iam getting 38mpg around town
maybe it will go up more and get some of the big car's off the road
If we all drove high mpg diesel's, comsumption would be down and so would prices
These auto mfg''s build what people want and then they whine when the speculators make money
on the price of crude oil...
