The price of gasoline is about 1,6€~1.82USD today...but 1 liter, not 1 galon 
Notice that this is almost the lowest price in this last year...

Got brand name regular unleaded today for $0.949 Cdn per L (0.62 euro), and it is going down some more. Our U.S. folks probably still laugh at our price.

Those numbers make sense fer 'merican prices.
What is the oil grade of the Shell Rotella? Walmart?

I suspect he's using Rotella T6 5w-40. It's the only full synthetic Rotella that meets the JASO-MA spec required by Honda. They also make a non-synth version (T4) in 15w-40 that meets the spec.
I usually buy the gallon jug of T6 at Walmart for around $21-$22.

Thanks Flynrider.
The 15W40 makes sense in the Arizona hot season. I have considered the T6 5W40 for more northern climate.

Yes sir. Been using Rotella T6 for many years. Meets ALL the standards for ALL engines at 1/3 the price. I use T4 for break in.
