LOL I paid $4.19 in Salem yesterday... I almost shit a brick. It should NEVER cost $50 to fill a car that weighs less than Rosie O'Donnell.

Would be better if diesel was the same or a little cheaper than gas. There are a lot of new diesel cars coming here very soon. With the high price of diesel as compared to gas Im afraid they'll flop.

Its funny to see people complain about the prices. Aww "this sucks so bad. I was an idiot and bought a vehicle that got 3mpg, now I can't afford to fill it.". Then there is the argument of oil companies making to much money. Last I checked this was a free market society and companies are in business to make money. As soon as anyone starts making any money people get all pissed off. Its the same as taxing the shit out of rich people. "Congratulations you've acheived the american dream. Now we are going to penalize you and take half your money."

I personally have always driven very small cars. I just drive to work by myself 99% of my driving. It bugged me driving anything that had more than two seats. My next car is going to be a Smart. Im on the waiting list, just waiting for my number to come up.

You cant compare the pound to our money right now.

They pay 5.50 lbs for a gallon but they also MAKE pounds so you need to look at it in that manor.

They pay more than we do but we arent far behind.
