It's starting to get rediculous.

As the USD plummets gas prices continue to rise here in the US. Where I'm at it's currently $4.20 a gallon with reports of $5 a gallon on the way soon. It's starting to get to the point where basic daily habits are going to have to change simply due to this.

I changed my habits a few years ago when they shot up over 4.
Our gas is still cheap compared to what they pay in Europe per liter. That being said, everything is going up due to the.gas.prices.

Well in The Netherlands we are paying per liter which is € 1,63

Converting this price for a Gallon that would make € 6,17 per Gallon, which is USD 9,17 per Gallon omg.gif uhoh.gif

But for I am so lucky that I don't have a car,...I bike and use public transportation like the train!! nod.gif

Ruud's math is correct.

That's why I made the comment. Our gas although high, is still cheaper than elsewhere.
