We may be getting hammered even harder down here with 91 at over $2 a litre and 95 around $2.10 when I heard on the news that crude prices were only equal to a time (about the 80s I think) when we paid less than half at the pump.

Thanks I live about 800 km north of Christchurch and as yet have no personal losses, so I'm very fortunate. As you will have seen the ground either fell off the side of a hill or turned to quicksand. This is New Zealand greatest ever loss of life with the known and the missing.
My tour group all stopped for our minutes of silence, as did the rest of our nation, at 1pm yesterday to remeber and respect all who have been effected first hand.
I sent a personal email to the only DRN guy I know in Christchurch and hope to hear from him soon

Thanks for that 2 smokes, my 350 series van loves tires! Watched the idiot box show called GASLAND on hbo, not good. Not specifically about crude, but did touch about that big reserve under the western states. Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness, or oil. What a choice?

I was wrong. Just picked the truck up, forgot about the balance, disposal, weights and tax... $1024 :ohmy:

Guess I'll be riding the RM till there's no knobs left.. it'll make me a better rider, or... I'll be sporting casts on both arms again...

I seen a map, of the highest gas in our country. It just so happens to be the poorest areas also. Kind of hard to believe living too close to Chicago. I am sure they have some prices to scare the color off my truck! But a thousand bucks for tires? What is this world coming to? That is almost what I paid for my dirt bike suspension!

In California, the state taxes on fuel are also applied to the federal taxes.

In my area, a few of bargain places are still barely under $4.00 for 87 octane regular, but most are $4.10 - $4.20/gallon.

Along Interstate 5, some remote stations are as high as $4.999 for diesel and $4.50 for regular.
