Yeah but your money is worth more, you get paid higher wages, and you have the Top Gear TV show on television, thus losing your right to complain.

Anyways, if I had to fill up (16US gallons) at $6.79 that'd be just about 50% of my weekly income as a student. What percent of yours is it to fill your car? I have options, if diesel goes over $3.05 a gallon I will be buying soybean oil from the store. 4.6 gallons at a time. Works out to about $3.01 a gallon.

2.79 here in southern WV. Went to Martinsville VA this weekend, saw it as low as 2.59. 2.45 for RUG, when it is 2.71 here. Never will understand the difference in cost from location to location.
