And let's nor forget Europe - where the norm is to pay about $4.00 per gallon without a fuel price spike.

Sorry for the rant - I just laugh everytime someone complains from a rate that many people around the world would gladly wish to pay.

Jealous much
At least you knew where your fuel rates were a year ago...where as our crazy ass land decided to increase by nearly 50%.

Actually I don't think Iran would trade its less than a dollar gas with us anyday.
