Right here where I am its about $3.50p/g and I have a 20-30mpg car, so a trip to say California from here(2000mi) it would cost around $233 to get there(expecting Petrol(Gas) to be the same al the way there)& assuming I have a 30mpg the whole way there
For Phil however and his $7.88p/g and lets say 20-30mpg car as well.
The Same Trip would cost him $525(assuming the same as above)
Explain why Americans are always complaining, look what Phil has to go through,imagine if he had a hummer!!Or M1A2 Abrams at 4gallons to a mile.OMG
The only thing is that you're coming from the US or Canada (I'm assuming), whereas Phil with his 2000 miles could get to how many countries over in Europe?
