   A few years ago some friends calculated the cost of gasoline, based on the (fixed) cost of refining and the (variable) price of a barrel of crude. You can make a rough guess that the price of gas in cents/litre should be 2x the price of crude in dollars/bbl.

     Actually, it's not as bad as I feared. Current price is $47/bbl, so gas should be 94 cents/litre, and lowest price I've seen in #Kitchener is 108 cents/litre. Converting from CAD to USD, that's $3.280/gal. @lnxw48a1 doesn't know how good he's got it.
