Regular Octane is $3.64 per gal. in Vermont.

Deanna

and 91* is .55 - .60 more .....Mike :thumbup: ......However the price of Gas / fuel is only the tip of the ice-berg ..... In 2018 the US became ENERGY self-sufficient ..... and the largest NET exporter of all fuels .... But that ended in 2021 .... JMHO .... Mike:thumbup:

Hi Teninospyder, what is meant by High tier?

From this article: https://www.consumerreports.org/car-maintenance/study-shows-top-tier-gasoline-worth-extra-price/

Top Tier gasoline was developed in 2004 to go beyond the minimum standard for detergent additives to better protect increasingly sophisticated engines from carbon buildup and deposits on the intake valves—which can result in a rough idle, acceleration hesitation, knocking/pinging, and reduced fuel economy.

This gives a good description also. https://www.carfax.com/blog/top-tier-gas

I paid $3.689 for regular today in Mesa, AZ. The people who tell us stuff say our fuel is expensive because it comes from California.

 

[RapidSpyder]

$3.27 reg., $3.72 premium. But tourist season hasn’t kicked in yet..

 

[pegasus1300]

Reg $3.32 in our neighborhood, unless I drive over to Nephi it's $3.05 for regular 85 octane

Hi Teninospyder, what is meant by High tier?

My price quoted is 98 Octane. In my own town of 11,000 people price between Shell and 7/11 can be up to 14 cents per litre for the same 98 Octane fuel.

I had a week away on the Spyder and I was stunned. I bought fuel back home at $1.89/L and when I fuelled up for the return trip found it at $2.25/L

In Australia we have what are called price cycles. The dearest day to buy fuel (Gas) is Tuesdays, cheapest is Sundays, where it can vary as much as 20 cents per litre.

Wow! 98 Octane..... Where can I get my hands on some of that Kickapoo Joy Juice? Don't they use that stuff to get to the moon? I know it don't have any corn syrup in it at that octane. Here in South Carolicki it's $3.25 for 87 and $4.00 for 91. Add another .25 for non-ethanol.

Correct.. askitee .I meant TOP TIER !! my badpps:pps:pps:pps:pps:

Sorry, but Aussie, and most all of the rest of world except for US and Canada, use a different octane called RON. It's about 8 to 12 higher than the Anti Knock Index we use which is (RON + MON)/2 so askitee's 98 is closer to our 89 or 90. You might find a Google search on octane interesting.

Actually, our 98 RON is generally the Premium fuel available, and is more correctly pretty close to your 93 AKI :thumbup:



The table of equivalences between your North American Anti Knock Index & the our/rest of the World's RON is roughly as follows -

Your 87 AKI = Our 91 RON or Standard ULP
Your 91 AKI = Our 95 RON
Your 93 AKI = Our 98 RON or Premium

 

[SportsterDoc]

93 is difficult to find in southwest USA.
When I had mild pinging on my 2002 Sportster 1200 Sport, I tried finding higher octane than 91, before trying octane booster.
Did not matter, as the issue was an out of spec MAP sensor.

That must have been for regular and a US gallon.
For a Imperial (CDN) gallon it is about $7:00 CDN.
91 octane is about $8:40 CDN a Imperial gallon or $7:00 CDN for a US gallon.

Here Italy.
2,15 US dollar/1 liter (0.26 us gallon)

Maybe time for the E V SPYDER. Just a quick note. I am sure someone is thinking about doing this real soon.

 

[Cobwebs]

$10 fuel might be understating it

Sounds good in theory but if Peter Schiff is right the cost will be prohibitive because of the hyperinflation already built into the system. The general shortages and price increases of most things lately are a clue to where we are headed and it's only just ramping up with manufacturers holding back rising costs that must be passed on soon. General consensus is currently 15% real inflation with a steeper curve coming rapidly. Imagine energy costs to charge the battery rising in tandem with fuel prices which they will and you're no better off.
I can't see an EV Spyder being cheaper than the current crop if you compare to the car EV prices so a disincentive there to start with.
Luxury items like our Spyders are generally the first things to disappear in economic downturns so get on em and enjoy while you can because one way or another circumstances are about to change for the worse for everyone unprepared.

With Russia moving into Ukraine, the news said oil reached $100 per barrel. It has not been that price for a long time. I am guessing we will see some instant increases at the pump...as usual.

If things heat up, could $10.00 per gallon be far away? :gaah:

Of course, I am hoping that I am very wrong in the prediction. :bowdown:

This is talking about what if? Let's keep the politics out for once.

Yesterday, saw gas at our local supermarket for $3.09 per gallon. Down a nickel from the day before. Others, $3.15 to $3.19.

 

[ulflyer]

Today, $3.30 81, $4.01 93. Not likely to get any cheaper either.
