Sigh.

As discussed numerous times, you guys wouldn't know expensive fuel if a tanker load of it ran you over,

I'm now paying a pound a litre.

Or, in US speak, damn near $7 a gallon.

I have been know to turn in sub 10mpg.

So really, from the bottom of my heart. Quit the whinging.

It's around 3.10 in my area. I heard Governor Wise, the governor of WV, said gas prices around here should be 2.75, and he's going to take action against gas stations that go to much higher than this. I hope this isn't a rumor. It's not just the lack of gas that's making it go up, it's greedy people who are capitalizing on tragedy.

Let me guess you make about 300 to 500 quid a week also.
I don't know much about the UK but my secretary worked in a nursing home in Port Lincoln, Au as an aide and made around $50,000 USD a year, but also consider the average American family pays between $400 to $1,000 a month in medical insurance where aussies get free medical, plus we rent our land from the governement regardless if we have the deed or not, skip a taxation and it's all gone, so yeah you pay a lot in petrol (even though it's only about $2 USD, the rest is tax) consider the fact that it all gets evened out in the end. BTW as long as Venezuela is paying 12 cents USD a gallon (as of yesterday) everyone has the right to complain.

Now on to the subject it jumped to $2.99 but there isn't any fuel left here.

Also for Kadett, it's 6.48 USD or $103 for a full tank, but the UK is around 75 cents USD less per gallon so yeah the Netherlands owns everyone, but as before Europeans also make more than americans. Here's a link of gas around the world in USD:

Because in Europe, they don't have to pay for anything else. Read above post by darksecret. Also thought I would mention, due to admitions requirements in America we get worse gas mileage. And, we have to pay for car insurance. Which is about $1200 a year average.

Ha ha theres a station right near my house that's at 3.19 a gallon now, but not even 3 minutes down the road there's a BP station with 2.99 a gallon, and across from that a shell station with 3.09 a gallon...

Funny thing is, there were still cars at the 3.19 a gallon station

No. I make rather more than that as it happens. How is that relevent. I'd make more money if I moved to the US.

Because the bike is hard work at 70mph for 200 miles, and has limited load space.

Additionally, petrol is in my blood.

What on earth are you smoking dude? We pay for insurance as well, and I pay a lot more than 1200 bucks a year. We also have to pay 200 bucks a year to tax every car we own. I also pay 40% tax on what I earn, on top of national insurance and 17.5% tax on everything I buy.

The reason the US get apparent worse gas milage is because your gallons are smaller than ours.

Be glad you guys can find gas. Here in Baton Rouge you have to wait in line for about 30 min to get gas. Then when you get to the pump all they have left is premium. This hurricane is messing everything up. Baton Rouge doubled in population in two days. Everyone who evacuated from New Orleans is in Baton Rouge. Most gas stations dont have any gas left.
