Cost of Fuel in Mexico
I lifted the prices below off a post on Craigs List.
Years ago we used to go to Tijuana and fill our cars
with much less expensive gasoline.
I began wondering if the same was true today.
And from the following I believe it is.
I would love to have $2 diesel.
Fuel prices for October 2007...
Gasoline prices for the current month:
Magna.............$ 6.71 pesos per liter
Premium..........$ 8.27 pesos per liter
Diesel..............$ 5.67 pesos per liter
These prices are in liters, since 1 gallon = 3.7854 liters.
Today (October 1st) 1 dollar = $ 10.80 pesos (+/-)
Using the previous information, this is what we have....
Magna.............$ 2.351 dollars per gallon
Premium..........$ 2.898 dollars per gallon
Diesel..............$ 1.987 dollars per gallon
Remember that in the Gas Stations within 20km along the border with the US, fuel prices are gradually matched with those of the States.
Shouldn't NAFTA allow me to go there and buy as much as I want and bring it back ?
