Jason : 87 octane is selling at that price, however much of the 87 is
cut or diluted. I still use 94 octane at a $ 1.37 per lliter which actually
ends up with more miles per gal on the highway. Penny pinching actually
kills you financially both gas mileage and the health of your Dakotas.
To be fair Toronto has the lowest fuel prices , Try Newfoundland or Quebec
and see how lucky you are as far as fuel prices in Canada .
See you in the Bread Line :-)
