James K--traveling abroad makes you thankful for our prices in the USA. However, we are a much more transient people here and have a much larger area to traverse. So, we also tend to use a lot more fuel than those other places. Case in point, how many of the smaller European countries would fit in the states of Montana and Texas? But I digress--I hope you had a great time in England. I've had a couple of layovers there but haven't ever had the opportunity to actually visit. Maybe someday...
Fuel prices here are at 3.35 per gallon.
