How much does gas cost where you are? I am in Kansas city Mo. and it has been hovering around $3 per gallon. I have heard that it is much higher in Europe. I would like to see where you are from and how much it is there.

I paid $3.15 earlier this week, and I live in Jacksonville,FL

I am consider myself lucky that I have a short commute to work, about 7
miles one way,still costs me anywhere from 40 to 50 dollars a week to refuel.

Sweden is worse... $2.01/liter ($7.61/US gallon).

Luckily I run my car on ethanol instead. Much cheaper, at least "pseudo-friendlier" to the environment and also it boost the engine performance, adding 25 extra horsepower.

You guys don't know you're born!! OK brace yourself for the UK prices -

Unleaded is currently £1.10 a litre in this dump known as the UK. So that's 63p a pint, which is £5.03 a gallon.

So at the current exchange rate it means that petrol is close on $10.00 a gallon! :evil:

Break out the roller-skates folks, coz we're gonna be taxed off the road altogether before long..... :roll:

The cost of living in the place is completely out of wack with the standard of living here. It's fast turning into the most expensive 3rd World country on earth.

You're not kidding, mate! And most of it is fuel duty and VAT claimed by the government. It's a disgrace.

The last one out of Britain, remember to turn off the light.
