      Consider yourself lucky: here it's ~1.8 USD per liter. The usual suggestions are use your car only when necessary, if you need to commute think about sharing your car with a colleague, try to keep constant speed without quick accelerations, make sure your car is in good shape... Personally, I use my car only once in one-two weeks: the weather is good enough to ride a bike, and that makes me healthier too :) Luca The Price of Freedom is Eternal Vigilance.

        Roughly 1 L == 1 US$ for Gasoline, and 1 L == 0.5 US$ for Ethanol.

          1 liter = 1.40 Euro. That's 1.78 US dollars per liter. Anyway, the fuel price does not directly impact on my standard of living. I assume food and other stuff is becomes a bit more expensive whenever the fuel price rises, because it has to be transported on trucks that need fuel. My tram ticket might cost a little more, because the tram company also provides couple of bus lines. So what? The fuels price has been rising and rising for years, but I never felt any need to reduce my life style. Byt he way: I never had a car. I go by bike and train. _____________________________________________________________________________ I don't expect too much, all I want is your vote for Halbsichtigkeit.

              It's about 97 pence per litre here, which works out at 1.78 US$ too - spooky. Back where my mother in law lives (a few hundred miles further south) it's about 5p cheaper, but on the whole most of the UK is paying just under a uk Pound per litre now :-\ -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! Buzzwords!

                Think yourself lucky. The cheapest price I can find for unleaded locally is 95.9p/litre GBP, which is $1.76/litre USD. Prices here show every sign of creaping up much further than that too - I really wouldn't be surprised if it was approaching £1.20/litre ($2.20) by this time next year.

                  South Africa is about 6.50 rands.(exchange rate at the moment $1=R7.20) OK only about 90 us cents, but if you only earn about $1000pm(R7000) it seems more. Petrol prices have increased here going from R2/litre 4 years ago. Its getting so that walking is best. Its a pity I stay 30km from work LOL

                        Tried Tesco? Theirs down here in Wales is around 92.9p/l. Also if you spend more than £50 in Tescos you can get 5p/l off, it seriously helps if you need to fill up something (from empty) like a Shogun (which we have) or a Range Rover (which a friend has). Our Shogun has an 80-90l fuel tank and my friends Rangey has a 120l one! He's there for about 10mins filling it up unless they use the lorry pumps.

                              The same applies in India as well. A dollar equals about 46 Rupees Indian Rupee (as of today's rate). And currently 1 litre petrol stands about 53 rupees. :^) Vasudevan Deepak Kumar Personal Homepage namespace LavanyaDeepak

                                    But the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy has a different quote. The crude oil prices from the Gulf and other oil producing countries seems to be experiencing an acute shortage. I think, they should also, seriously look out for non-petrol energy sources as well. General Public should also consider more patronage to public conveyance system rather than depending on private motor systems. This will significantly improve traffic conditions, at least in India.

                                        Buy a more efficient vehicle. In the US recently I saw an advert for a car boasting 29 miles to the gallon. That would be laughed off the screen in the UK. Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                                          Around here it's US$3.09/gallon, that's about US$0.81/liter. The price of gas as very nearly doubled in the last 3 years, as there doesn't appear to be an end in sight. My truck (load payment + insurance + gas to get to work) now costs more than my house payment! Dave Kreskowiak Microsoft MVP - Visual Basic
