I just dumped &#036;140 on fuel for Gitchee Gumee :<img src=:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

But I did save &#036;4.50 by filling 2, 5 gallon cans with offroad Diesel :ph34r:

But I will be in Canada for 9 days: PRICELESS :D

I estimate I&#39;ll spend roughly 200 dollars on just gas, if I drive my Jeep up. If I tow, probably 250-300.

Question is, what does gas cost in Canada?? Keith was thinking about filling up his 50 gal tank in the US and strapping it to the trailer&#33;&#33;

I like diesels, I just think they need to make them a tad lighter&#33;&#33; Maybe some composite plastic with steel sleeved cylinder walls or something really space age&#33;

It&#39;s about 5 bucks a gallon but I don&#39;t think you&#39;ll make it over the bridge with 55 gallons of gas.

I burn about 120 gallons round trip just getting there and back. Figure an average of &#036;2.85 = &#036;342 just in the motor home.

Then another 12 - 15 gallons per day of premium @ say &#036;4.50 = &#036;54 for each fillup. Since I am there for a week, figure at least 6 fillups = another &#036;324.

So...... &#036;342 + &#036;324 = &#036;666 in gas alone.

I did pick up 3 bottles of octane booster so I can buy regular. Comes out to &#036;o.15 per gallon just for the octane booster. Not sure what the savings between regular versus premium is in Canada. Here it&#39;s about the same.


This sport ain&#39;t cheap is it?
