you gotta love americans crying about fuel prices, this year with the earlier exchange rates when the pound sterling was strong against the dollar, the fuel prices were at their highest also, we as in the UK and Ireland were paying £1.29 per LITRE that equates at the time it was over $2 to the pound
So do your maths 1 Litre £1.29 ($2.58) @$2 per £1 for arguments sake but i do remember it going as high as $2.10 this year 1 Gallon (UK 4.55 litres) £5.87 ($11.74) THATS ELEVEN DOLLARS SEVENTY FOUR CENTS PER GALLON PEOPLE we were getting shafted for fuel, it was costing me £102 to fill the Carlos Sainz at that time so we were truly out of pocket compared to you guys across the pond --------------------  |

Not to mention your cars are more fuel efficient, you have better designed and more available public transit, or the fact that so many towns are pedestrian friendly with most everything within walking distance. You could fit FIVE Irelands into Florida alone! So if anyone is whining, it's you trying to make us feel like you have it so bad. That just isnt the case here. Not to mention that anytime something so essential to everyday life DOUBLES in price within the span of a year or two, there's going to be a fuss about it.
