well... but that's not quite true..
price ranges from country to country.. Nordics are a lot more expensive than others..
I guess Spain is the cheaper in EU..
I got Fuel from 1.05€

you still pay less than us.
yes.we pay 100 bucks here, the dollar is 50 to one. so 100 pesos, 2 dollars. and a casheer at a supermarket makes around 3000 pesos a month.
a guy who can sort of aford a car and has some kind of "good: salary makes 15k a month.
so do some math compared to us salaries, we are paying around 8 dollars a gallon.
so full tank is about 80 american bucks.
that means, we pay 4 times what you pay.
yes you pay less than us.
oh, by the way, sometimes theres no electricity cause there is no gas for power plants.

you americans have been guzzling way too much "gas" or petrol for years and years.
You still pay way less than anyone else in the world, pollute more than most of the others put together and now you complain about prices.
Bah. no sympathy on this one...pure greed.

use your legs ...
in France it's ~ 1.3 euros/l and down here in OZland ~ AU$1/l ...
in France some medical research team start counting the number of deaths presumably caused by car pollution and yet it's not that polluted ...

I know I shouldn't generalise, but it makes me mad Goddamnnit !!!!
no offense meant shwax, but the Kyoto treaty did it for me...

- warheros0
i think generalization is appropriate for this topic. i live in america and i hate it! anyways, gas is a big problem here, has been since the 50's id say, and im no expert.
you look at the u.s., you see we have every kind of car for any kind of personality. i find this ridiculous. you are not your car, and a car gets you from a to b, plain and simple.
am i wrong in saying that the u.s. is the only country that has huge car races all the time? monster truck rallies? dirt-bikes? snowmobiles? other pleasure vehicles?
people here love big vehicles, just because theyre big. they dont give a shit their car gets 8 mpg. just BUY BUY BUY!
