Texaco - it's the same gas as Chevron, but about 3 cents cheaper/litre.

Maybe not for you in particular, but as long as nobody's willing to switch to some other alternative, gas companies can just charge what they want cuz ppl will buy no matter what.

Fuck, I had to fill up in Vancouver on the weekend and pay your overtaxed mainland prices.

94 Octane in Victoria is the same price as 87 in Vancouver.

I think it was around 1998 when Arco tried to muscle in to Vancouver and caused a gas price war, and it went down to about 39¢/L.

Without going into to much detail, my work requires me to drive. Although my family is looking to replace my sister's car with something more economical, but we have yet to find one we can all agree on. If only the new 2012 civic drove like my dad's old 93 civic, would be on that shit so fast.

Texaco for me. Same gas as Chevron, and they have a pretty good store... the beer selection there is awesome!

Also the lady is super nice. We chat for a bit before I go back, and I always get the free cup of coffee they give you when you fill up.

Googled the analyst in the article... he's one of two in one of the companies and I think it's his company or he has some ownership ...

Googled some of his previous media mentioned predictions :noob:

Gas light was on and it was $55 to fill up half my tank (Camry). Seriously ... 135 to SFU for the rest of the summer.

Seriously? I went out around 2PM, all the stations by Wal-Mart/Sumas were at 138.x. Same deal when I was heading home around 8.

Flaming Hot Cheetos....when it's on sale....

If not then it's usually a can of monster import before crossing back.
