Description

I thought it would be good posperity to have a photo of the current gas prices. This photo was taken in Lagrange Illinois in July 2005. This has been the worst year for us as far as gase price hykes. Begining of the year we were only paying 205 at the most. Interested to know different gas prices from around the world...........let me know in your comment. Thanks. . . . `~`

At the current exchange rate, 1.00 UK Sterling equals $1.77. So with petrol now standing at 0.87 per litre, you would have to pay $7.69 for 5 litres, the equivalent of nearly 1 gallon. How's that grab you?

Huh??? So cheap!!! 1 US Gallon = 3.79 Litres. In the UK 1 Litre = 94p. At US$1.77 = UK1.00 this means we're paying the equivalent of US$6.30 per gallon... and you're paying the equivalent of only 38.4p per litre!!! If only... Kastakan :)

I saw something on CNN where this guy determined it would cost over $100 to fill a Jaguar in the UK! NJ prices are about 20 cents cheaper than those in the pic.

I run a Mitsubishi Chariot, and that costs 47 to fill, ($84ish!) at my local garage (Bristol England), it works out at just over $7 per gallon

Here in Ottawa Canada, the prices have jumped to about 95 cents a litre. I saw a pickup truck fill his tank and cost $110.00. I'm happy owning a 4 cylinder Camry. It doesn't cost me more than $40 to fill up.
