$5.00 A Gallon Common - What Is It In YOUR AREA?

I just spent around 1.4 USD for 70 liters of gas in Venezuela.

I paid $3.99 for low octane 87 yesterday in Leesburg, Va.

Every dollar you pay in gas you make an Arab/his cronies/and certain people in this country that much richer. Another nail in the average American citizen's coffin for every dollar spent in gas. From jobs to infrastructure to rampant illegal immigration to gas, where does it end?

$1.54 cents to the litre in Melbourne Australia right now and with the currency conversion at $1AUSD being 0.96 cents USD = $5.08 cents for a gallon.

and WOW @ in the UK I really feel for yall and am just so glad I don't have any need for a car right now.

UK Midlands here just paid £1.39.9 a litre for diesel, you get around 3.8 litres to a US gallon. As a general rule of thumb we can convert £-$ by doubling the UK £. So thats around $2.80 a litre or around $12 a gallon. Now to me that is very expensive and just hope it does not get that bad over the pond. For people like me who work for themselves this is crippling, I spend more on diesel than materials for my work, its unreal.

Here in Australia it's about $5.57 US DOLLARS A US GALLON. ($1.54AUD/LITRE x 3.785 TO US GAL x 0.955 EXCHANGE RATES)

Been using more fuel than I ever have.

Mr. Rabbit,

Funny, this fuel thing goes hand & hand with a drastic decline in LA "Boob Jobs."

For legions of gold-digging starlets, it seems just GETTING TO your bill paying Sugar Daddy is more of a priority than how you show up!

This economy's got men saying - "Excuse me Miss 30 years younger than me.... leave the credit card with the $20,000 limit on the table!" :

I'm in hollywood/L.A. area and paid 4.65 per gallon yesterday. GUess I got lucky...ish.

But five dollars in some places out here wouldn't suprise me.

I was in england last month and with the conversion rate it was roughly 9.50 a gallon or so...painful.

I go buy this and it's consistant with what I buy regularly at ESTBY in Cornelius, OR so, no need for a pic here.

here in stockton, california on june 12 08' the lowest price for a gal. of regular gas is $4.43

3.89 dollars for regular in central texas. and thats the cheapest place in town. On average it is between 3.92 and 3.99 here.

.....you know you can buy hydrogen conversion kits to make your car a hydrogen hybrid from eagle-research.com the total package cost around 550. And a local auto repair guy with a talk show on AM radio in San Antonio is offering to do hydrogen conversions for 1500$.

Filled up Wed. in Liberal KS at 3.83/gal. Hooker,OK had it for 3.85 and Guymon,OK 3.99, all on Wed.

I heard in Amarillo,TX on Fri. had gas at a Walmart for 3.77, I think.

BTW, I like my Cobalt, 36+/gal.

Central Scotland ... £1.149 per litre unleaded ... rough calculation $8.70 per USG.

The price of petrol is now forcing changes to my lifestyle. The poor Volvo is now consigned to evening & weekends only. The daily commute is now on foot & by train ... it's only 7 miles as the crow flies but takes the best part of an hour each way, such is the state of Scottish public transport.

And end of the month I've got a £110 ($220) bill to pay to the government for 6 months Road Tax *sigh* anyone wanna buy a Volvo S80 ... one careful owner ?

$3.99 here in western Pennsylvania. It's been pretty steady around here, from $3.95 - $3.99 for the past few weeks. There is one station that is $4.19, but it's a little local station on the way to work that is always higher than anywhere else.

I don't know what Americans are complaining about.

In Australia it's $1.67 a Litre this morning. In Gallons that's $7.64 a Gallon! In USD that's $7.27 a Gallon! Quit complaining, you have it good!

Well I had to go back o Liberal,KS and gas was still 3.83/gal, I filled up again. Here in my home town it's 4.05
