My piont...DON'T fu#king subsidise the boating(leisure) industry !!!

How much went to the fast ferries....how much to air caribbean......every major airline is cutting routes due to high fuel prices yet this asswipe airline adds more routes.

I'm so pissed the only option is to put the the max amount (30k/annum) into the deffered annuity plan which i did @ 25k but how many out there can even put $500 or even $300.

Most small cars have a 50L capacity, that's an additional $50 bucks / full!!!!

What's going to happen to guys that bought those Trajet/ Quest for Sando runs ?

Boy I feel to for people out there yes.

Yeah, beyotches!
That going towards paying for the Navarra.

and we don't like it so again. We 'love' it so

[honda hoe]

i does put $100/day in gas

[hydroep]

Hmmm...demand for foreign used diesel engines (and consequently price) may increase also. On the bright side, one should be able to pick up a gasoline engine very cheaply in the classifieds in the upcoming months...

it's appalling to see you people's lack of knowledge in basic economics.

Firstly, we have 10% inflation. Raising these gas prices makes absolutely no sense! I don't care how much we lose in this subsidy. It's the advantage and almost a a right for an oil producing country to have cheap gas. Mind you while $4/L is still cheap, it's going to wreak havoc over the next few months on our economy. People can barely afford things as it is.

Second, those of you saying cut back on spending etc. Well, your intentions are good, but whenever you cut back spending, people, especially the working class lose jobs. Our market may be saturated right now, but it's best we keep the service industries intact. If everyone say subway & KFC too expensive, in order to keep their profits and balance their chequebooks (with the same profit to shareholders), these places will have to start cutting back on costs....namely employees or worse yet (for me), qualitiy.

[streetbeastINC.]

some people say the price is ''just'' as compared to US....u cannot compare us to the US people....come on get real....not even goin into why.wont waste my time....

[streetbeastINC.]

all them greedy bizness ppl must be don lookin for ways to raise everything although the vehicles used for the bizness... run on diesel......

thinking bout that makes me want to be ah criminal... lol

[nick009]

Wat abt the price of super??? Remained the same???

super is same price!?

[ingalook]

GDP per capita is more than twice what it is in T&T

You cannot compare our gas prices, they get paid twice as much on average

To clear things up, its $4.00 a GALLON in the US and $4.00 TT a liter in TnT

[pyromaniak]

Okay, here's my opinion - We all used to run our cars on 92 octane (now super unleaded) a few years back with no complaints. Yes there are some vehicles that absolutely need premium but most if given lower octane gas will retard the ignition timing automatically. You may not get all the power you're accustomed to but either live with that, pay up for the premium or work out a way to do something about it.

All I can say is try de Super maybe with an octane boost and see how it goes, you may be surprised.
