Ah, gas prices ... do you still remember when gas is about a buck fifty a gallon? Those were the good ol' days. Nostalgic chart brought to you by Gas Buddy, a website where you can (try to) find cheap gas. Link - Thanks Carrie B!
Say hello to $4/gal gas soon, America! Link
France, for example, gas is 5.05 euros per gallon.
It's roughly the same amount in USD with cost of living, but $6.56 with the exchange rate.
Were is that $3 a gallon bargain?
sorry
Watch how fast gas prices drop when Honda or Toyota introduces a fuel cell car here in the U.S. in the next year or so.

One of the great things about growing up in Atlanta in the early 90s was the cheap gas. I think the lowest I ever paid was 77.9 cents a gallon.
I remember when gas was 19 CENTS - per gallon!
And cars still get similar mileage to what they did back then - what's wrong with THAT picture?
