question for US boys

How much is a liter of unleaded fuel these days in the US ?

over here it is about 1,03 Euro/liter (about 1,04 Dollers I assume)

I live in rural eastern Pennsylvania, and just paid $1.47.9 for 93 octane unleaded fuel. Since 1 liter is equal to approximately .264172 gallons, that would mean I paid about 39 cents for a liter of gasoline. I have been told that I am fortunate to live in an area with relatively low gasoline prices. Sunoco 94 octane is available for about $1.54.9 or about 40.5 cents per liter.

The current price in Saint Louis for 93 pump octane (97 RON) is about 40 cents per liter.

Not really..typical for Europe. Just makes you think twice when you want to complain about gas prices.

Relatively speaking. If prices ever reached those levels in the US, we'd start a war with Arab oil countries

You just answered the reason why most of the world isnt behind us on what we do overseas. It is the belief that we do it for oil, like you suggest, and the people in the rest of the world have no sympathy if the americans, for once, have to pay maybe HALF of what the rest of the world pays.
