                  6.50 I wish. Over here in the UK, we're nearly on £4 per gallon (1.8 $ per £). but who cares like they say

                  Ride it like you stole it!

                    Actually you're not paying much more for gas than we are in the USA but you're paying a hell of lot more taxes on it... We'd have an armed revolt if that happend over here.

                      In NZ $1.25 a litre and rising like there's no tomorrow. I get 12 - 15 kilometres to the litre. 10 kilometres going hard out. You can squeeze 22 litres into a 78E. Average 'fill up' is about 17 litres or so. Over $20 a hit. Six bucks fifty! I wish!
