Americans and canadians should feel lucky that gas is soooooooooooo cheap. In europe gas is is not $3.50 - $4 a gallon it is nearly $10 a gallon. Wake up guys, quit moaning and appreciate the fact that fuel is so cheap in your part of the world.
As I said earlier in this thread, $4 a gallon is a lot for us. We don't have public transportation like you guys have over there. Where I live I have to drive everywhere I want to go. My job also requires me to drive to my job and have a vehicle that can accommodate my tools and people if need be.
