Just be glad you are not a Jehovah's Witless out in field circus. Well Wtwizzard I used to spend 150.00 a month in service back in the late 80's for gas. I'm too tired to try to figure it out. But we are now at $1.12 per litre x 4.5 litres per gallon.=$5.04 per gallon. P.S. Did I say I hate Firefox,I can highlight, can't paragraph, can't double space on this computer.
After I bought gas today . . .

BFD, life is getting always dearer but petrol for you is less than half price compared to the UK. Now for a driver that fills up say with 40L per week the tax paid is £26.40 and over a year it becomes £1372 = $2744 which is a lot of money.
And 20 cigarettes cost typically £5.50 and out of that £4.22 is tax. Someone smoking 20 per day will pay £1540 of cigarette tax in a year.
It's a country that likes taxing heavily. -

I gave up my car six months ago when I moved back to NYC. I figure I save over $200 per month just on gas not to mention car payments, insurance, and maintenance. Also, if I had a car in Manhattan I would pay at least $350 per month for parking.
The added benefit is that I walk a lot more.

R.Crusoe- A myth busters episode recently ran a diesel car on recycled kitchen oil. Yep, went to a fast food place, strained out some of their used oil and the car ran fine. Now that's an alternative fuel the industry really doesn't want to get out! -Potential
