Oh good. Someone has already done the "you winging fools wouldn't know what expensive fuel was if a tanker load of it ran you over".

I reckon, with maintance, insurance and fuel my car is getting towards a dollar a mile. Admittedly I drive it *hard* but still.

I'm paying 35-45 cents a mile in fuel alone.

uhh in other countries their cost of living is different and their minimum wages are all different so its 2 different soceities thatis hard compare. And it isn't Bush's fault, if any other retard was the president they would be blamed for everything as well...don't hate just read up on something before you complain...

Average wage and cost of living probably isn't that disperate between the US and most of Europe to be honest.

$2.19 on 93 here in north jersey... it actually went down though. it came from i think around $1.97 then rose to $2.27 in like a week then dropped down to $2.19. and it seems that its holding at that price around my area but will probably rise... >frown.gif>

I know that the minimum wage here is $5.15 per hour where in Australia it's over $7 per hour. Gas prices in America are around $2.30 per gallon where in Australia I think it's around $1.10 per litre. If you do the math that would mean that 1 US gallon is equal to 3.78 litres. That means that Australians pay around $4.15 AUD per gallon or $3.19 US per gallon. Take the minimum wage of say $7.25 AUD and that is around $5.60 US. So yes Australia pays more for petrol than we do but they make a little more also. I haven't researched the UK but the economy is similar to Australia. For those of you that don't believe my research I have an Australian standing here next to me that said that sounds about right. She did say that in the Adelaide area it's about $1.20 AUD per litre.
damn its like up to 3.09 a gallon in san diego...

just paid 2.45 today for 91 octane here in Utah. 30 bucks to fill up my toy...god...
there is more to it then that..taxes, inflation, amount of money in circulation, debt...hah i hate economics
It's $NZ 1.31/L for 98 octane here in NZ at the moment - works out to around $NZ 4.96/gallon or $US 3.55/gallon.
