nice summary of costs in various countries...don't forget to do the conversion for liters to gallon and currency...the table didn't hold its format, but it makes $3/gal look good. :(

I wish speculating on commodities was made illegal. Gas prices will rise with inflation but speculators like to talk and artificially make the prices rise.

There is a station around here that I don't know how but for at least the last 2 months diesel has been 2.99. I usually run my tank empty but at 2.99 I have been topping off every few days. I want to get like a 250 gallon tank trailer and fill it up. That would probably last me a year.
