Can't wait till I get my moped...$60 to fill up a Toyota sedan is OUTRAGEOUS!

However, I was just talking to my friend's cousin who is visiting for 3 months from Scotland and she was telling me that over there the price of gas is just over 1 pound per liter which equals roughly $8 per gallon here and she said that the prices are expected to get to almost 1.50 pounds per liter by the end of the summer...imagine having to pay that at the pump. She said that her Ford Fiesta costs nearly 45 pounds (roughly $90) to fill up...that's a fiesta...a FIESTA!!!

Wow. Oil has been slowly dropping the past two weeks. It was down to $120 at one point and out of nowhere oil shoots WAY up.

Oil is up $11 in one day! $139.16. That is a serious move in one day.
