yep, It's crazy how much you pay of there. But you also drive a lot less for the most part. In the US only big cities have mass transportation. Everyone else drives. And we have much bigger cars.
btw, I'm not complaining about gas prices. 30 years ago a car was roughly $3500 and gas was about 35 cents per gallon. A car today is roughly $35,000 and gas around $3.50 a gallon. To me it's all relative. Then again, I work from home and don't have a 30 mile drive to work everyday.
My biggest concern is the price of everything else going up. I was chatting with a friend who owns a bakery and he said a 50lb bag of flour was $27 3 months ago. Today it's $70. And guess who he's going to pass the extra costs on to. That's just one example.
So to help stimulate the economy we're giving away free gas so lazy asses like lkport can go out and work
