Price of gas is sitting @ $144.9/L
That's $5.80 a US Gallon. And about $6.66 an Imperial Gallon. What the price in your neighborhood? The local temps have been hovering around the 90*F mark and over a 100*F with the humid ex factored in. At those temps it's too hot to sit at any stop lights and cook in the car. 6 months ago I posted about the temps being @ -40* so there was no 914 driving then. |

missing my NY 914 in VA Group: Members Posts: 1,336 Joined: 26-November 07 From: Oakton VA Member No.: 8,376 Region Association: MidAtlantic Region |
it is about $4.45 a US Gal for 93 octane, here in Northern VA.
As for temps, we have the same. Middle nineties with heat indexes into the 100s. Not so strange for VA. |

I am having a major hot start issue with my 914. It's too hot for me to drive to work without air conditioning. In the mean time the price of gas has gotten even more rediculous. |
