[JD NYC]

Just came back from Aruba , imagine paying 7.50 a gallon for gas , and we complain

Just because they pay $7.50/gallon elsewhere doesn't diminish how stupid fuel costs in the US are as well. Both of those prices are functions of governments regulating costs through the roof.

$8.50 on Hwy 40 outside Needles, CA.
California is not ever surprised by $7.50 @ gallon, might even be a bargain in Montecito.

Don't care what Aruba pays--don't care what any country pays.

I care I'm not paying $2. It's simple.

I think the cheapest country I've bought gas in was Qatar, and it was roughly 29 cents per gallon at the time. The gov't set the price and all stations had to charge the same thing, and they manned the gas pumps for you.

I'm honestly not sure where the most expensive was. Cyprus, maybe.

I lived in Cyprus for 2 years and its definitely not the most expensive gas I ever paid for.

Watched a movie made in 1990 last night. They pulled into a gas station.

99-cents for "Leaded"
and
$1.02 for unleaded

My mom used to give me a quarter to fill up my motorcycle... I would have change. Never mind how old I am!

However, I was in the UK a couple weeks ago and my rental was a diesel. I paid the equivalent of $8.24 /gal to fill it up. We are back down to $3.39 /gal here (club price) and I filled the Gen 1 up over the weekend for less than $100 for the first time... since I can remember.

I am glad to see it creeping back down.
