Hiya Lee

We've just returned and there are three different types of gas available and prices do vary from petrol station to station but the last time we filled our van it was $2.89 a gallon. We hired a Dodge Caravan which was a big 7 seater van and it took $50 to fill it up.

Hope this helps you, happy planning :goodvibes
 
We had a 7 seater mini van in March / April.
At the time gas was around 2.75 and it cost $35 to fill up :thumbsup2
 
Hi there,


We were at WDW a few weeks ago a noticed that the price at the local Hess Gas Stations were around $2.70 per gallon. You may not be aware that the US Gallon is equal to 3.75 litres as against the UK Gallon which is equal to 4.54 litres. At WDW gas stations can be located at the following areas: Outside the Pleasure Island/Downtown Disney area, Near the Boardwalk hotel across from the MGM parking access road. Another is located near the Magic Kingdom Car Care centre and is the best place to fill up on the way out of the MK. Other stations are available outside WDW near the Crossroads shopping area. Hope this helps.
 

dont be fooled into thinking the onsite hess are dearer than ofsite infact they work out as some of the cheapest in the area.some of the petol stations just outside can be as much as $1.00 a galon dearer than hess so take care.Hess allso has Krispe Kreem dounuts,beer and coke at simalar prices to wallmart and not as far to drive as they are onsite

Gas prices, although they have increased recently, are still a pleasant change to our UK ones :thumbsup2
 
RaceTrac station's tend to be as cheap if not cheaper than most, although the location can affect the price.

Minvan's such as Dodge Caravan or Chrysler Voyager do tend not to be very economical when compared to say a Full sized saloon car.
 
Race Tracs on Sand Lake road was the cheapest in January, and you didn't have to prepay and guess how much you needed.
 
When you pick your hire vehicle up ask for the 'return full' option as opposed to buying a full tank and returning it empty. The hire companies charge a lot more per gallon and you dont get a refund for any fuel left in when you return it.
