i saw a news article on top of the associated press that hit a little bit close to home. san diegans are starting to cross the border for $2.50/gal gas.
"I used to buy exclusively in the U.S. before gas started really going up," said Patrick Garcia, a drama teacher at an elementary school in San Diego who lives in Tijuana. "Since then, I've been buying all my gas in Tijuana."
The lower prices mean a U.S. motorist could save almost $54 filling up a two-year-old Ford F150 pickup with a 26-gallon fuel tank in Mexico.
i live in the northern suburbs, so it's a little too far for me, but i'm impressed at this dedication to cheap gas. the us/mexico border crossing takes FOREVER, to the point that i hate going to tj for just a day of cheap beer and tacos.
