OP
The cheapest cars I tend to find out where ford. Go for the ecoboost engines.
In Canada ecoboost means that you get like a 3.5 litre instead of 7l. We had some massive car that was used in a TV series so it was the platinum model fully loaded the first time it was an 8 seater ford something. Second time we got an escalade and then there was this GMC beast the third time possibly called a yukon.
Yes it is.
It used to be roughly half the price.
It's now about 70-80p a litre. Which is cheap.
Obviously depends on exchange rates and price fluctuations.
He's even said himself it's just over a dollar per litre.
You used to get 2 dollars to the pound and over the past 4 years about 1.6 dollars to the pound.
I've been to Canada 4 times over the past 10 years.
I also rented a Porsche in Los Angeles last year and I thought fuel was cheap there too but tbh it's pennies when you are on holiday. The 100 bucks or so in fuel was nothing in comparison to other costs. So fuel costs were hardly a major concern that I documented them or analysed much. They are significantly cheaper though.
