Yup... about the same as we paid in July if you use 12.50 pesos to the dollar 40 pesos = $3.20

I always fill up at El Rosario 2 - 5 gallon cans when pulling the boat. Stop in Catavina for a sandwich and put the 10 gallons in the vehicle and try to ward off "Got - a - Peso".

Pompano...keep those things filled! One of my last trips I was counting on gas at Guerro Negro, the one on the highway, and of course it was out and it would have been a stretch to get to Jesus Maria. Had to go back into town, pay to have my tires sprayed, mess with town and then I was on my way again. Had an empty 2 1/2 gallon jug with me. Never fails.

Got a peso....he wrote all the songs for the Beatles you know.

Just remember if you do get diesel in your gas tank you probably shouldn't shut off your engine or least don't let it cool off before getting gas in the tank. Gas engines don't start well on diesel. They usually run OK unless you're pulling a load up a hill.
