True that Croatia is much, much smaller than the US, but compare our average wages with yours and take into account that our gas prices are twice as expensive, you'll get what I'm talking about. :)
BTW, I used Croatia only as an example, you can take bigger European countries like Germany, France or Great Britain where the prices are even higher.

8.85 dollars in Britain. Soon to rise to about 9.7 :down: again, i know what you say about size of country etc... but i dont really think that equates to you having less than half the price of gas (at your peak!)

LOL! You guys really shouldn't complain so much, because in Europe, gas is much more expensive.

ye you all also have much better public transportation (from what i understand, feel free to correct me if i'm wrong).


Correct

i understand that it probably wouldn't be a complete equalizing factor (i meant that statement more as a thought + something to put adi's and elite's bitching into perspective).  i also think that'd it'd factor in more than you'd think e.g. my state is larger than your country by area (and i don't live in a particularly large state).  of course "space" would be one of many factors (pop density, infrastructure, patterns of movement--who knows everyone in england could drive to scotland once a month  :dontknow:, etc.) that would go into a complete analyzation of gas prices and it's effect on the population in each of our respective countries.  i think it would be kind of cool to see some kind of corrected gas price.

i just know that next school year i'll be able to ride the bus from my apartment to school and back.

in the majority of all cases cars are used not for epic journeys but relatively small ones, on a day to day basis. just in bigger areas people having a higher chance of taking a long journey. but most car users basically everywhere use their cars for journeys under an hour, and thats why i personally feel its not such a massive factor.

and no1 from england ever EVER goes into scotlnd :dontknow:

Gas is about $4.61 in San Diego. Making it cheaper to drive a few miles down to Tijuana in Mexico where it is $2.54 US dollars, and cheaper in Pesos. Viva Mexico cabrones :banana:
