Taken from a well-known and reliable source.

pesos per dollar. Making the cost of Magna US$2.61/ gallon... a dollar a gallon less than in California. |

We got a receipt and figured out the pricing.

But don't forget Mexican gas is full of water and they have a secret remote control that dispenses less gas than what the screen says. JUST KIDDING!

For 800 Pesos, I can fill my 15 gallon Jeep tank and (2) 5 gallon Jeep cans - roughly the same amount of money as filling the Honda Pilot (18 gal)
that I drive daily (when filling up in the United States). Talk about being easy on the wallet! This is one of the reasons why I love traveling in
Baja.
