I'm starting to wonder if my memory isn't of England (and I've been in Greece for 5 years now!! lol). I'll check tomorrow, it's time to feed the beastie anyway.

Unless someone lives where I live, they have no right to complain.

Regular is $3.75 a gallon, premium is $4.05 a gallon, and diesel is $4.09 a gallon. While driving through Santa Barbara last weekend, it was $4.15 for regular! [X(]

And I drive a '99 F-150 5.4L V8 that gets 12MPG. Can you say $85 fill up?

Let me rephrase that. Unless someone in the US lives where I live, they have no right to complain.

Depends on where you live, how far away it is from the refineries/distribution centers, how many people are in the area etc etc. I live on the Central Coast, so we are basically midway between LA and San Francisco, and this isn't a metropolitan area, so gas here is freakishly expensive since the oil companies have to spend money to transport the fuel here, and there aren't a whole lot of people here to buy it, so they jack up the prices to compensate.

Update on my post...

There's a station on the PCH (that's Pacific Coast Highway for you non-westerners) near Big Sur that charges $5.45 a gallon for regular! Only reason the gas station owner charges that much is because he can, since he's the only station in about 50 miles on the PCH. Plus, the town of 17 people that the station is located in depends on a generator for their power.

Right here, it's about $3.79 for regular and $4.25 for diesel.

Yup and after a couple of fill-ups, you end up with a free one when comparing to others.
