    In Portugal we pay 1.18508 USD per litre (dont no how much is a gallon :p ).
    Since they have liberalized the market about a year ago petrol as gone up about 40%.

    I believe in Italy we pay among the highest rates in the world.
    Gasoline is currently (nov 2005) an average 1.46 USD per litre, diesel slightly less.
    One liter is 0.22 gallon UK and 0.2641 gallon, the inverse is 1 US gallon = 3.7854 liter. So 1 US gallon gasoline in Italy would cost 5.52 USD.
    Actually it is also important to consider that Italians prefer to buy smaller cars, and engines for the European market are studied for great efficiency. An average-size, recent family car would make at least 15 km with one liter, which gives a cost of around 10 US cents per km.

    Canadian = 1.03/liter in lower BC = ~3.92 US/gal

    Ooops, I am wrong, it is 90 cents/liter x 3.78 = 1 gal. 3.78 x . 84 = $3.18/gal US

    2.49 in southern Oregon - but everywhere else I have been in oregon in the last few weeks is as much as .30 less per gallon!!! And some of these places are miles from no where, yet cheaper than we are. Something is screwy with our prices around here, because the excuse they give us is distance for transportation, and we are closer to california sources than these out in back woods towns.

    Do you have different formulations out there? In Wisconsin it greatly depends on what formula you have in your county. We have the 'good gas' in my county so even if it's more I don't mind paying the extra compared to the counties next door.
