Wow, I just paid $3.47 a gallon; I think that's the most I've EVER paid in my life!! (not in adjusted dollars necessarily - face value)

In 1981, I probably paid more per gallon. (adj. for inflation) But it's damn close!!

It hit $4.00/gal in Maui today!

I can remember when I was about 5, my family went on a road trip through the desert to visit my grandparents. We stopped at a little station in the middle of BFE, and the gas was 50 cents a gallon. Apalled, my mom shrieked, "50 cents a gallon? That's highway robbery!"

Gas here is running at about $1.05/litre. That is roughly about $4.00/American gallon. In Alberta, we're sitting on the ruddy stuff and we still have to pay this outrageous price. Jeez Louise!!!!! :soapbox:

I'm with you. It hit 1.09 a litre here, well over the 4.00 a gallon mark.....

Do you guys come here to get gas?

We did when it was far less expensive, but when you factor in the 4.00 X 2 toll, we only fill up when we go over for a shopping excursion....

I can't wait to here about the record earnings for the oil companies again. I just love those press releases, gives me warm fuzzies all over to know I just helped pay off another sheik's yacht!!

you've never been to the southwest United States and experienced the freeway system, have you? :crazy:

No, but I HAVE been in Delhi and experienced 2 million cars in one city and close to nil (usable) public transport. :crazy: :crazy:

:doh:

I just don't understand why Americans still complain about their fuel prices, which are very, very cheap compared to the rest of the world.

Fuel in Australia is about $5 American per gallon now. Which, in my opinion, is still too cheap.
