Remember tips to save,   
- Car in good mechanical shape (Tire pressure*) 
- Drive the speed limit ( try and keep a nice flow in your driving) 
- Plan trips to get more done in one go 
- No fat bitch's   |       I know the formula for shell gas is the same for North America.  You might have problems with smaller stations and places like Superstore, Costco and Canadian tire because they get there gas from wherever.

			I went across this morning. Gas was $3.81 at USA Gas and just over 4 bucks at Chevron.   
I had to pick up a parcel at Letterlock, so the gas was just another reason to go south. I filled up a 20 litre jerry can. No problem. Border guard told me one jerry can, no problem. Anymore than that and they will take notice...... totally not worth getting flagged over. Since I started going on a weekly basis, the border guards are starting to remember me. "So gas again this morning?"

I believe we are the source of our gas but apparently we sell to a larger U.S. company who intern sells it back to us at a obviously jacked up price..

will the gas (in the vehicle already ) need to be declared on the TDC ( will be rush hour so i dont want to wait in regular lineup)?

			According to some of the members, you are allowed to make verbal declarations.

			Fortunately, the gas at grocery stores like Fred Meyer and QFC are Shell-derived so I'm not too worried about it being "dirty". Comes with the benefit of being 10-15 cents cheaper than Chevron.

For Nexus user you are allowed to do a verbal declaration on the goods, and just like the regular lineup, it all depends on the officer on duty whether you get taxed or not.  
I go to  PR few times a month and I use my Nexus, and I never gotten taxed in the Nexus line.    |        Quote:

This is the exact conversation betweem me and CBSA, with my paypal receipt, shipping info, and TDC ready in hand.  
CBSA: "So?" [I have never had that before, usually it's where you live, why you went, what you bring back? Instead this time in Nexus, she just said "so?"] 
Me: "I am purchased a $250 car part, a used exhaust." 
CBSA: "Have a nice day." 
Me: "You don't want to see my Nexus card or my passport? What do I do with the TDC? Sorry, it's my first time using Nexus." 
CBSA: "That's fine, good bye."  
I got through within 5-10 seconds. The Nexus card appears to be a "no-questions asked" card.      |        Quote:

Also, Texaco = Chevron. I always fill up at the Texaco at Pt. Roberts because they are cheaper than Shell/Chevron plus free coffee.  Posted via RS Mobile     |

There could be 50 cars in the lineup and everybody gets through without any problems. Some people are in and through in under a minute. So weird. With my beard and whatnot, I look like a freaking terrorist. You'd figure they'd check me out, but nope.

			Hey Falcon, why don't you READ some of the Mazdaspeed tuning boards before you ignorantly fail.    
Here's one to start:   Blog : Local Mazdaspeed3 Custom Tuning Day with the COBB AccessPort : Stratified Automotive Controls  
Nothing I said was untrue.  Jackass.
