Hi,

I think you have a bit generous in your size of a US Gallon. A US Gallon Liquid is equivalent to 3.785411784 Litres or 3.786 for quick calculations therefore your gas is even cheaper than you posted.

14 x 3.786= 53c a US Gallon
21 x 3.786= 72c a US Gallon

Still very cheap fuel for most these days but must be a shock to many of the local people who do not have the levels of income or spare cash that many westerners have.
