Finally under $2 a gallon in canada!!

Where I live, they just put a new a shell station with a truck stop, and there digital price board said 65.5 a litre, and thought that might be for the truck stop portion.

So I pull up to the pumps, and sure enough, 65.5/litre (1.95/gallon). Haven't seen it this low in a long long time. Now I don't feel guilty for playing with the smoke tune now.

Diesel is just a few pennies more in California and Canada than it is in Texas? Does this mean the world is coming to an end?

I've been hearing gas would be more expensive that diesel, just haven't seen it here yet.

Where can I get a set of wheel weights for my tractor that look like that Lisa? The one on that Deere is much nicer than those bolt on steel things.

LOL. Yeah we went to the John Deere museum in Moline, IL. today.

Chris that wheel weight might look ok...but it tends to b*tch a lot..and needs regular maintenance.

Sorry to disappoint but 65.5 per liter is $2.489 per US gallon, or $2.948 per imperial gallon.

approx 3.8L to the US gallon and 4.5 to the imperial gallon.

You're probably right. I bet that version costs more money and requires a lot more maintenance also.
