Hey DD,

Yep we've got the same here (Leaded Replacement Petrol). The problem is here in Adelaide, the 'LRP' is about 6 cents a liter more expensive than Unleaded - which is over $1.06 a litre at the moment!!!!

I think that equates to about $3.12USD per gallon!! OUCH!!!

How much is it in the USA at the moment?

TnP

SF Bay Area, California
$2.30/gal for 87octane
$2.40 for 89
$2.50 for 91
This is probably the highest, not average, price you'd find around here.

Remember that we are comparing Imperial & the smaller US gallon here.
None the less, even with a correction factor, the US fuel still looks to be cheaper.
[Imperial Gallon = 4.54609 L]
[US gallon = 4?L]

The least expensive place around here (Seattle) is 2.03/gallon. That's $0.54/liter USD (0.72 AUD/liter).

Factoid: In the USA, gasoline/petrol is less expensive than one-serving size bottled water:
gasoline: $2/gallon
water: $3.81/gallon
(based on local Safeway supermarket price for a 20oz Aquafina bottle at $1.19. Perrier is a similar price).

Australia too: Bottled water: $1.50.

Of course, plain distilled or spring water is far less expensive, under $1/gallon. But just in case brand name water is better than the plain stuff, don't you think it's worth it? Same as with gasoline.

David, you never fail to surprise,... & impress me. I have been a Radio National listener here for years, but i had no idea that you were cruising their website.
Very well researched, & as i said, i'm impressed.
