In the UK its now £1.05 per litre.....£5.25 per gallon......$10.50 per gallon (I remember when people said it would never reach £1.00 per gallon).

No politics, just a question...a comparison.

 
Stafford VA reg unleaded is $2.93/gal. I remember ranting one time that I wouldn't pay $0.43 a gallon! Long, long, long, time ago. As in a time when diesel was cheaper than gas!

Yeah Gun Doc, but then again you get to go to sleep with the sound of gunfire in the distance - priceless!

You do have a point there. Then again, there's that strange half-second of contemplation when a bomb is dropped where you wonder, "Was that from the base...or is this the beginning of 'the big one'?"

:unsure: :unsure:

 
High $3.639 Low $3.399 for regular. I pass these two every day and they are continuously the high and low vendors in my 'hood. I haven't been by the station in the Upper Village lately, but he can be as much as $0.25 higher at times (lots of Rover's, Benz's and Bentley's to fill up, wot?)

 
Still free, but man I'm getting sick of the taste of gasoline. E85 is (Hic) better, but still not fun, and lightin a smoke results in pretty blue, not orange, colors, making it tougher to read a map.

To be fair, your (Imperial) gallon is 1.2 times larger than ours, so your £5.25 per UK gallon is $8.74 per US gallon.

That still sucks for you. Do they break down how much of that is taxes for you? I have a feeling our tax load is much smaller than yours. We don't seem to realize that the best way to pay for infrastucture like roads, bridges, etc is through user fees, like gas taxes. Instead we take money for road repairs from the general budgets (state and US). Though this varies somewhat by state.

 
I don't know. I siphon a few gallons each night out of my neighbors SUV. I get fuel for my FJR and he ******* how he only gets 14 mpg ......
