One of the major difference between gas prices here and there is the fact most eu contries I know of pay hefty gas taxes to subsidies the socialized health care and other public programs

Here they dont do that. I would gladly pay 8.00 a gallon if I got free health care. I would be saving myself a ton of money

Good point. I hate when that comparision is made.

yeah, i had the flex fuel in my old tahoe and filled up I think 3 times before I got rid of it. I never tested the theory, just what I read. It was a noticable difference going to the pump and saving more money when I stuck the E85 in.

WRONG.

Let's compare 2 people. Say both use the same amount of gas. Say 500 gallons a year. Both have the same income.

Person A- American makes $40,000 a year. Say gas goes up to $3.60 a gallon. That's $1800 a year or 4.5% of his yearly income.

Person B-Eurpoean makes $40,000 a year that's 62,400 Euros. Pays 5.64 Euros per gallon. That's 2800 euros or 4.49% of his yealry income. Seems about that same to me.

math is FUN!

Wow :helpme:error

Its about time people stop driving Hummers and F150's to do their shopping

I saw my first US smart car the other day, expect to see more of these.

Exactly everybody driving those POS vehicles have no RIGHT at all to bitch about gas prices. If you drive something that gets 30+MPG go ahead and bitch cause you've at least done something about it.

Instead of bitching, we ALL know it'll be $4/gallon this summer so change the way you do shit! 1) buy an old/cheap car so you can put your payment cash towards gas OR go buy something which gets better gas mileage. I have 2 kids but honestly MOST of 24k miles on my civic hybrid the past 6mnths were with only 1 person in the car and very rarely is everybody in (2 adults + 2 kids)

Here's what you do, simply have something SMALL for driving to/from work! If you're driving a Yukon Denali XL to work with 1 person in it you simply have NO RIGHT to even complain about gas prices.

Complain about your corvette getting under 20MPG? here's a thought, don't press the pedal down so hard, I've owend 4 vettes and they get GREAT gas mileage if you don't hammer it all the time.

Bitch about way lower than EPA gas mileage? here's a thought, simply quit doing 80+ on the freeway everywhere! When I stick to cruise set at 70(speed limit here) I get 45 MPG and when I do 80MPH I get 38MPG and when I do 55 everywhere (highway speed limit) I get 55MPG back the fuck off the speed and you go further ;) that time saved from going faster is killed by stopping for gas so much more often

Mehh.. we've been paying well over that for a while now.. close to $6 a gallon for premium gas

Our government takes a huge percentage on the petrol sales just like they do on alcohol or tobacco sales.

Hey fellow Belgian :)
