Anyone have a current price? I was in Agua Prieta yesterday and paid 4 bucks a gallon by my math.

Magna (unleaded) was 22.87 pesos/liter this morning at the Rocky Point Pemex on Josefa. In Sonoyta this morning, 18.19 pesos/liter for Magna at Pemex.

Thx, Using 20.8-1 gas in Sonoyta is $3.32 and in Penasco it's $4.18 per gallon. I know where I'm filling up tomorrow on my trip to Cholla.
 
We came down to Cholla today, gas price signs were $4.99 in Why and at the Lukeville station.
The Circle K was showing $4.18, I bet someone didn't change the sign yet.
In Sonoyta magna was still 18.19 per L. It took 10.2 gallons to fill and cost 722 pesos with 20 peso tip so $3.43 per gallon.
Sonoyta Premium was 20.49 pesos.

Thanks, Brokenwave, for the update. Gasbuddy shows the metro Phoenix average for unleaded at $4.65/gal on 3/11, so saving $1.20/gallon topping off in Sonoyta (and paying in pesos) makes some sense these days. The price differences in these markets are fascinating. If you're paying in USD, you'll get clipped a little in the peso/dollar forex - ARCO in Penasco posts a 19/1 exchange and I saw a few Pemex stores post 18/1. I'm also curious how accurate the pumps are at dispensing the full liter/gallon that you're paying for. I've always been satisfied with the gas quality and have never had any issues with Pemex gas.
 
I have found the pumps I used at the Oxxo in Sonoyta to be fair, I figured I needed about 10 gallons to fill and it took 10.2 gallons.
Unlike some of the pumps in Penasco where you get 80-90% of what the pump shows.
Their exchange rate at the Oxxo was 18.9-1.

Did you pay with cash, pesos or Visa/debit?
 
I paid with extra Pesos I had. The atm I used gave me an exchange rate of 20.7-1 last trip. I only use a credit card in penasco for big items and only at larger stores I've dealt with before.
 
Filled up the truck back home for the first time after being in Puerto Penasco since January 20 it was $235.00 and it wasn’t on empty. Holy shit.
