   Guess we are not doing all that bad.

   We were down for 3 week at the begining of January, and the prices seem to track pretty close: Panama being about .10 higher all the time.

   Hardly a deal breaker.

   We bought a house when there, and I’d love to tell you (and everyone) about our experiences when the appropriate thread comes up. I saw a little veering off course in the Novey thread.

   Don,
   Is $2.29 the actual price for a gallon or a liter? I’m planning to leave here again and drive back down shortly after the 4th of February. Thanks
   Ron

   Gas sells by the gallon. However the octane ratings are different than in the US. 91 octane = 87 in the states and 95 in Panama = 91 in the US.

   Here in the land of Oil and Gas, it is 81.9 per litre or about $3.00 per US gal. Figure that…
