Gas Prices In California


Recommended Posts

Not a long time ago it seemed they were going down, now they are up again. And I hate spending that money just to transport to work or school. Any hints, ideas, predictions?...

Right now the regular one is $2.43. But it's not been the highest.

I guess it would be fair if all the companies (including schools) started to consider providing employees with a fixed amount of payment for gas only. Wouldn't it be nice? :))

It would be terrific, but I don't think that's going to happen :(

I had no idea you are also a socialist, on top of everything else! :angry:

Well, I still have to fill it once a weak. And it's called not socialism, but забота о собственном кошелке. :hehe:

It's really cute, isn't it? :hehe: It was hit from behind just recently :( The mexican driver didn't manage to stop his kachalajka after I pushed the brakes very suddenly. Later while I was trying to pull over and get out of the car, he made a U-turn and drove away. It was one of the most stupid situations I've been in.

That’s what you call it. I call it «заинтересованность в кошельке kars-а», since I will be among many other taxpayers to subsidize your drive to work or to study! That is dirty socialism! It’s also commonly known as «жить нахаляву». :/

It's really cute, isn't it?

Yes, it surely is. :up:

Even I – who never liked smally cars – liked it. Looked good, fresh and stylish. I am sorry you had this accident. Hope you have the ”uninsured motorist” clause in your insurance policy. If you need a good lawyer, let me know. ;)

Думаю, нормальная цена на бензин должна быть в интервале $1.80-$2.50 за галлон :)

Причем мы находимся в лучшем положении, чем те кто жил примерно 50-80 лет назад. В пересчете на нынешние цены они платили ту же цену (если не больше), но малоэффективные двигатели пожирали гораздо больше топлива, чем сейчас. В то же время в последние 20-25 лет были очень низкие цены на нефть, и мы как бы привыкли к низким ценам на бензин. Поэтому нам теперь кажется, что бензин слишком подорожал. Придется привыкать :(

Еще радует подлая мыслишка, что наши северные соседи платят за бензин немного больше :D

Кстати, отличный сайт - http://www.gasbuddy.com/ - вводим зипкод и находим самый дешевый бензин поблизости.

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) – Gasoline prices in the United States, which have recently hit record highs, are actually much lower than in many countries. Drivers in some European cities, like Amsterdam and Oslo, are paying nearly 3 times more than those in the U.S.

Netherlands Amsterdam $6.48

Norway Oslo $6.27

Italy Milan $5.96

Denmark Copenhagen $5.93

Belgium Brussels $5.91

Sweden Stockholm $5.80

United Kingdom London $5.79

Germany Frankfurt $5.57

France Paris $5.54

Hey guys, I think we're still in good shape.

yes, it was yesterday at least. :) I didn't go out today )))

It's not that bad for LA. :) Usually it is about $.30 higher in LA than in las vegas, and it's currently $2.37 in vegas. I think the gas price went up because of holidays (high demand).

I live in Las Vegas.

Are you in Glendale?

No (как это ни странно)

I used to like Glendale but soon realised that the further you are from the Armenian gossiping community, the better. Though even in this neighborhood all of our neghibors are Armenian, but it's at least possible to keep the distance :D

:D I know (Жил в Глендейле почти 7 лет). That is one of the reasons I moved to Vegas. :)

So, what city are you in?
