I been using can-am gas over multiple cars for like 10 years... never an issue

I'm glad at this point for full time WFH. Even then it's still $400+ a month for gas right now while doing soccer dad duties.

eruhh i remember before that its actually illegal to transport gasoline through the massey tunnel. is that right?

So only electric cars are allowed through? No gardening trucks with a Jerry can on the back?

This is still true. You have to go through 91. Something about transport Canada regs.

Just a FYI for anyone that fills up at the Shell on D Street, I got double charged. It's likely a one-off mistake because I don't think this has ever happened to me.

I usually do 1 Jerry can transaction and 1 car transaction, for a total of 2. There are 4 transactions for the same day.

did you swipe twice and they charged u 4x?

I know sometimes locally they do a "preset" amount of 300, then the charge, then they eventually refund you the difference

Yea I know the US thing where sometimes they put a hold on the card, also sometimes the visa is laggy where they have pending transaction Vs posted and it shows double

All four are posted transactions. And yeah, I swiped twice for 2 transactions but they charged me 4x. smh

The weird/suspicious part is that the charges are close, but not exactly the same amount.

could be exchange rate related.

Yah... makes me want to check my statement... I usually do Can-Am, but the other day I drove my MR2 Turbo over and filled up at Shell because it's a bit more touchy with its fuel requirements, better safe than sorry I guess...

[edit] Checked, just the 1 charge seems to be okay

dispute it, I haven't seen double posting yet from them.

Whispers of mainland possibly be hit with gas shortage? Anyone else hear that ... few gas stations are selling premium at reg price.

Yup, most of the Shells in Vancouver and some in Burnaby have been selling 93 for 87 price since Friday? This is from that private group in FB

5.7 liter pick-up truck - 200 dollar fill up... oof.

madness....

full tank of gas in the Acura PLUS 4 jerries. Total spent $265CDN after conversion.
(3 x 20L, 1 x 25L)

... Blaine, WA - Exxon Express PREM at about $1.92/L CDN

If i try to drive minimal - this has the potential to last me one entire month so about $65/week. no issues with CDN border coming back after she asked me how many jerry cans.

Careful, those Americans might start showing up with pitchforks at gas stations in protest

Just like the costco milk crisis years back (minus the pitchforks)

Can am was reg $1.439 and 92 $1.579 yesterday so like $2 a liter, still cheaper than when premium goes on sale as reg here. :okay: still going broke buying gas though

So in my STi what I’ve been doing is filling the car 65L, then bringing 2 20L cans. Point roberts can-am for top grade. After fees and conversion $2.02 or something a L so almost 50 cents a litre savings.

Blaine is probably cheaper but the convenience of PR is worth it. Edit: it’s been good though. Using ~55L of the cars tank + the 2 Jerry cans gets me just over 800km, or about 11.5L/100km which for a high km STi is fantastic

You know what I'm amazed at? ppl in pick up trucks and shit cars like Elantras flooring it on the highway like gas free. Is there some secret cheap gas club? :pokerface:

These the same people that finance their car at 12%APR over 84 months because ooo shiny new car.

I rarely go into the office these days, but when I do, I walk to the Canada Line and take it... the other day I was walking home standing on a corner and (rare sight for Richmond) there was a lifted truck with "FUCK TRUDEAU" stickers and Canada flags and that grenade sticker etc on it stopped at the light where I was waiting and when the light turned green, the guy in the passenger seat some little toothless goof from who knows where leans out the window "How's WALKING BITCH??? AHA HA HA HA WOOOOOO!!!" and they floor it off the light with diesel smoke pouring out the 5"+ exhaust hahaha

I was like :seriously::fulloffuck::okay::yuno::fuckthatshit:

Probaby used $20 of diesel just pulling that off... and they're always in RWD only mode too so they can L1gHt-eM Up!!!

Someone has to be pretty insecure with themselves to heckle random people standing on the street, especially making such assumptions as "duh because dems is walking deys must be dose lefty environment".

Like shit, the primary reason I walk to work is because it's a bit of exercise and starting up the car and driving it for only 1.5Km is horrible for it in terms of wear and tear.

My wife takes the bus because parking downtown is non-existant and unsafe, and we have 2 very convenient, direct bus routes to choose from.

Plus, it makes me enjoy driving for pleasure on weekends far more.

The environmental reasons for commuting this way rank extremely low on the list of reasons.

No but it's fun
