How Much Is Gasoline Where You Live?

@Gusman Are there any oil wells in Australia or is it all imported?

@cherokeepatti No oil here at all.
Every litre comes via overseas tankers.

@Gusman We have oils wells and refineries in Oklahoma. And natural gas is a by-product of oil drilling so there’s a big market here for that too.

@cherokeepatti I am envious of your prices.
I like to travel distances into the bush, always have to factor in the price of fuel for a return trip.
Always over $100 a trip.
Driving is expensive.
Broome, top end of Western of Australia.
Highest price is AU$2.26 a litre - $10.27/gallon
US$6.77/gallon

@Gusman What kind of vehicle do you drive?

@Gusman What kind of vehicle do you drive? @Gusman

@cherokeepatti Mitsubishi ASX, 2022 model. Good on fuel.
Where I go when I go bush is often over 600km - 370 miles round trip

@Gusman I have a Honda CRV (4 cylinder engine) and it’s really good on gas. We went to a cancer hospital yesterday so Ray could get a P-T scan and got over 36 mpg. My other Honda CRV that got wreck 2 years ago only got about 27-28 mpg at best.

@cherokeepatti My Mitsubishi averages 32 mpg.

@Gusman My Honda gets around 52 MPG

@sunsporter1649 What’s the wind chill index riding around on that in the winter?

@cherokeepatti Sometimes it drops way down to the mid-60's and I must wear a long sleeved shirt
