    I can't believe gas went up 15 cents over night here in Kansas City! It's now at $3.15 in the Kansas Side of the state line. I'm sure glad I purchased my prius last week! I only paid $24.87 to fill up this morning and I'm good for another +400 miles!

    That's about what it is in Denver, though our most recent hike was only $0.06 to $3.16 (though I've seen a few $3.20's as well).

    That's it?

    We saw a 30 cent spike here yesterday between the morning commute and the afternoon.

    Just this morning (May 12, 2007) I saw gas @ $2.77 per gallon in Pflugerville (outside of Austin, TX).

    I paid $2.89 per gallon two days ago.

    Well, in Sweden we pay just under 12 SEK / liter.
    That is about 45 SEK / USG.
    Witch with the currecy(?) of today gives about 6,45 $ / USG.
    So the gasoline in the US is very cheap.
    :rolleyes:

    Except your prices have lots of taxes in them that pays for good roads and transportation systems.

    I havent been to Canada or to US so I dont know the condition of your roads, but I can tell you that many roads in Sweden are very very bad. Many times I wonder where do the money go.
    What finance your roads then ? dont you have tax on gas ? and a yearly roadtax on your car ?
    (sorry for my bad english) :unsure:

    Gas here in W. Michigan went to $3.29.....took $32 to fill up my Prius from the last bar (pip) at 9.2 gallons. If I was in my Olds (also a four cylinder) it would've cost me $44 for 13.5 gallons.

    Not too bad I think. :)
