you reckon its been expensive in qld? least you get your fuel subsidised. it was $1.39.9 for regular last week, which mean as good as $1.50 for ultimate. add in the fact that an FD tank is 76l and its way over $100 a tank...

Hey you boys down under. Here in Toronto, it's about $1.02 litre. I think the Canadian dollar is slightly stronger than the Aussie buck, so I guess we're a bit cheaper than you guys. Costs me about $65 to fill the 7. But I ain't giving her up. Besides I have a Mazda 3 as the daily driver.

Only other place I would live is Australia. Been there 3 times and the beauty is incredible. Enjoy Oz in your 7!
