Gasoline prices for the current month:
Magna.............$ 6.64 pesos per liter
Premium..........$ 8.15 pesos per liter
Diesel..............$ 5.61 pesos per liter
These prices are in liters, since 1 gallon = 3.7854 liters.
Today (July 10th) 1 dollar = $ 10.60 pesos (+/-)
Using the previous information, this is what we have....
Magna.............$ 2.371 dollars per gallon
Premium..........$ 2.910 dollars per gallon
Diesel..............$ 2.003 dollars per gallon
See you at the BajaRosario Festival 2007!!!

Thanks Antonio!
Those heading south for the festival in El Rosario, top off before crossing the border to reach El Rosario. The Pemex prices within 20 kms. or so from
the border are matched with U.S. prices...
Regular unleaded in coastal San Diego County is now ranging from $2.93 to $3.20 from what I have seen.
Costco in Carlsbad was $3.039 on the 11th.

DK, is it still true that prices are matched? I thought there was a groundswell of negative reaction when they tried this the first time to discourage
border hoppers, so the "pricing strategy" was discontinued. Que tal?

I just paid 2.91 at the AMPM mini mart gas station in National City on 8th street yesterday.
Looking forward to the El Rosario festival next weekend! WOO HOO!
Fuel prices at the border...

Bajamigo... along the US/Mexico border and within a 20km zone, fuel prices (Magna and Premium only) are still being matched to those of the States
every Tuesday.
It has been the same for a while now....
And also remember that further south into Mexico (inland) the IVA (Tax) is 15% instead of 10%, therefore the final price the client pays for fuel is a
little bit higher... another good excuse to stay in Baja...
Safe travel my friends...!!!
