$3 a gallon is nuthin', you're still paying a lot less than most of the modern world.

I fear for alaska if it hit our prices over there... Or any other country you feel like steamrollering...
85p per litre is about US$5.75 per US gallon. (if my brain hasn't gone to sleep and I worked that out right... )

Ouch!

$3 a gallon really is not that much compared to other countries. Unfortunately the US relies on road transportation to move stuff around the country a lot more than many other countries who have been dealing with higher petrol prices for a long time, so any increase does have a huge impact (and not just for motorists).
