Just in time for peak vacation season. Over here we're well over $5/gallon.
I'm suddenly having flashbacks to a vacation a few years ago when I filled the tank of a borrowed Citroen (XM Turbo) that guzzled like I have never seen guzzling before. It was 120 euro to fill the tank and on the autoroute the beast would inhale so quickly that I could watch the tank dial drain as I hit the gas pedal. Ugh. The next year I opted to borrow the a/c free windup-toy Fiat Uno that was a bargain at 38 euro per tank and a longer range between fillups. It barely makes it to the speed limit (130K/hr) but it's a great bargain at the pump.
