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?

Not saying that I envy Phil, just saying that everything is so much closer in Europe that he wouldn't have to travel as far.

Step out of the way. He'll keep going until he hits a wall, that being Akranadas. Let him go unmolested, his journey will take less time.

Yeah Stumpster I know that I'm just stating in a simple way how much more expensive it is to do the same thing.
