I don't think this is complaining yet, just because your prices are over twice as much as the ours doesn't mean that we don't have a right to be pissed at the current situation. Honestly you are getting screwed by your government in taxes and fees more than we are. Looking briefly on the internet I found that 95 octane gas in Finland has about 66% taxes added on to the base price by the time you purchase it (http://www.oil-gas.fi/eng/index.php?m=5&id=82). Here in the US the Federal gas tax is 18.4 cents per gallon plus anywhere from 8 to 32 cents per gallon for state taxes, depending on where you live (http://www.gaspricewatch.com/usgastaxes.asp). In Idaho gas is about $3.06/gal including taxes, which shows I am being charged 14.2% in taxes per unit. The % of taxes paid looks lower when gas is high and higher when gas prices drop (probably over 20% on average).
Hypothetically if you paid my local ($.25/gal) and national fuel taxes ($18.4) on top of your average base cost in Finland($6.93 gal*33%=$2.31/gal) you would actually pay $2.74 a gallon.
So excluding all taxes, you pay less for fuel than we do.

 

I saw $3.72 for regular today in Anaheim area, So. Cal.

 

Here around Munich it´s 1,40 Euros a liter for 98 Octane grade. That´s about 5,18 Euros a gallon, at the current exchange rate Euro vs US $ of 1,36 $ a Euro this sums up to US$7,05 for a gal.

I keep mixing fuel and Bioethanol E85 ( which is 0,89 Euro Cents a liter) for my daily to keep the costs down a little...
The funny thing about the gas prices here in Germany is that 80% of the fuel price are taxes... talking about getting raped by government...

 

Paid 3.29 in Green Bay, Wi for gas about an hour ago. I guess it's 3.50 a gallon in Milwaukee. Good ol Wisconsin...second highest gasoline tax in the union only to New York....

 

People are pretty pissed in Norway too! $7.5/gallon last time I checked.. AND we pay extra taxes on the cars here too if they use a lot of gas.. A new good size car cost about 50% more than in say, Sweden... and cars ain't cheep in Sweden hehe

Oh, and we have our own oil.. to quote wikipedia: "Only Russia and OPEC member Saudi Arabia export more oil than Norway, which is not an OPEC member."

Love it..

 

Come on Corncobcoupe, dont fall into the SUV haters club...how about all us fullsized pickup truck drivers...14mpg and will always drive one!!

 

Too dam much!

 

To be perfectly honest I have been tired of fuel prices since hurrican Katrina. So us good old boys in Illinois are brewing are own fuel, one part gas two parts corn fuel, Commonly know as shine!

Car runs like an ape..maybe 120 octaine. >?We use corn and if the market is right peaches, My freinds say that when they run behind me is smells like peaches..so when my women is next to me they say here come peaches and cream.

It run about $3.29 galonlastwwekend in the Northwest Minneapolis suburbs ( this was the fishing opener so it went up $.20 a gallon last week ).
It probably will stay high till after hunting season and drop the $.20 like normal.

 

$3.21 is the cheapest I've found. Prices tend to run around $3.29 and up.

 

Here in West Virginia I just paid $2.99 for regular, the problem is my Buick doesn't run on regular. The premium was at $3.43 and they said it's going up tommorrow ( crap! ) I am begining to hate the middle east and oil companies how about you guys? Rags

1.24 a litre here in southeastern BC

 

In my area is 2.99 - 3.05. Across the river in N.J which is 5 minutes from my house is 2.80 - 2.85 a gal.

 

Prices here in the Charleston, WV area gas is $3.09 per gal
My SUV gets 17MPG with a load or pulling my car dolly with the '60 F100 on it!!! It gets as good if not better gas mileage of any pick-up I've ever owned and I can pretty much do with it as most pick-ups.
We have a car that gets 26MPG+ that we drive mostly.

 

San Deigo CA is anywhere from $3.39 all the way up to $3.99 depending on the area.

 

I'm beginning to notice graffitti on and vandalism of self serve pumps around here that I've never noticed before- I wonder what THAT'S about???

 

I live in Flatwoods,Ky and at the superquik beside my house it is 2.85 with cash discount

 

3.49 here in portland.

I remember paying 1.11 in South Carolina in jan. 2001.

 

Salem,OR $3.33 for 76, about 3-5cents less for (shudder)ARCO, but who cares?

 

$3.44 here in SE Wisconsin. I was in downtown Chicago the other day and it was $3.89 for Reg!!. 2 damm high!!!

 

Just filled up this morning as I left work in East San Jose, Ca, (ghetto-like area) for 3.27/gal. for 87 octane. Got home where I live next to a Chevron in Willow Glen (snobby rich old white people area) and 87 octane is 3.49/gal. Go figure...

 

Omaha Nebraska-----anywhere from $3.19-$3.30 for unleaded. Dont even wanna think about premium. I would give anything to see below $2.50 again. This is the beginning of the end

 

So gas is cheapest in USA, next is Japan, followed by Canada and Germany.
