am sorry, but $4/gallon in 2026 is a fucking joke. back in the 1990s, gas was $7/g̶a̶l̶l̶o̶n̶ litre in many european countries.

petrol should be $20 a gallon if not more because USians should have changed the way they develop suburbs.

USA DOESN’T NEED CARS, it needs walkable towns with stores, hospitals, schools, post offices, grocery stores.

i hate USA suburbs because they are literally food, health care and education deserts.

KILL THE USA SUBURB,
SAVE THE WORLD.

I got caught out on this: US gallon is only 3.785l. While 8 pints in a US gallon, 16.65 imperial fl/oz per US pint.

America took the imperial units, retained them when Everyone Else changed, but also developed slight changes to Some of them over the years to make them even incompatible with the system they were based on, and then defined them BY the VERY SYSTEM they are resisting (the US definition of the inch is in mm, the US gallon in litres).

I know it is possible, but I would rather not haul feed sacks on any kind of bicycle on my local roads. It may work on level roads, but not here.

Our roads are heavily traveled, 2 lane mountain roads, have 55 mph speed limits, along with tourists (who can't drive) and trucks. It just not my idea of a safe ride on any day. Plus it is 10 miles to the town. (Cars are not even safe, I had a deer jump in front of my car twice here, for $$$$ repair costs.)

My solution is to combine my trips, and only go into town once or twice a week, as necessary. And avoid wildlife.

Current prices are around €2 a litre. In the ‘90s, the price in Italy (for example) was below L.1000 a litre, that is the equivalent of €0.45.
I'm referring to "100% petrol like it's sold in the USA", whatever that means.🙄

It’s not 7 dollars per liter now.

But it sure has been at least twice the US price at all times.

But the US doesn't use imperial measurements, they use American Customary Units
Of particular relevance here the US gallon is approximately 3.8 L, compared to the Imperial gallon which is about 4.65 L

what are you talking about?

7$/ gallon or liter? not even close. more like a tenth.

1990:

Country | Gasoline | Diesel

Germany | 0.93 | 0.76

France | 0.94 | 0.75

Spain | 0.74 | 0.65

Portugal | 0.77 | 0.66

prices in USD/L

ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-statistical-books/-/ks-cp-03-001-3a

while i totally understand your hatred against cars, please keep in mind that most industries worldwide run on gas and diesel.
your shoes, clothes, electronics and most stuff is being imported for two simple reasons: either one country doesnt have the ressources, or simply because its much much cheaper.

do you remeber when the orange face faggot introduced the stage1 tariffs and the price of a playstation has risen by 15 or 20% overnightz?
extrapolate that. onto everything. then you have an vast idea of what youre really asking for
