Just have to set priorities. Choose between the wife and the Harley. Times are tough all over this country. Wife will have to make some personal sacrifices. [8D]

ORIGINAL: PWHOG



Don't know how you Brits are working it out but fuel is approx ÂŁ1.12 per litre in th UK

4.5 litres to the UK gallon = ÂŁ5.04 per Gallon.

US Gallon is a little smaller approx 0.8 of the UK gallon so ÂŁ5.04 x 0.8 = ÂŁ4.03

Appox 1.9 dollars to UK Pound = 1.9 x 4.03= $7.66 per gallon

So there you have it we are being ripped off to the tune of $7.66 per gallon of fuel in the UK

I would not mind paying your prices at all !!!!!!
All those socialist programs cost a lot of money. What the people in the UK and in all the other European countriesalways fail to mention is the taxesthey pay per gallon which is much higher then the taxes per gallon we pay here in the USA. I doubt you even pay as much as we do just for the gasoline without all of your taxes added on.

I was going to complain about local prices myself, until I read "PWHOG"s post. We're still well under $7.66 a gallon. Like the rest, it pizzes me off when I see the prices jumping over manufactured "shortages", but I figure a tank or two of gas in the Fatty per week is better than the same in my F-150. Now if the snow would only go away!!
