It takes a whole stack of cash to fill up my tank these days. Looking on the bright side of things, at least I am not driving a HUMMER. It cost about $120 to fill up one of these. I am glad I am not one of the thousands of selfish morons who is stuck with one of these. Then again if you can afford a Hummer you most likely don't care about how much gas costs, pollution, gobal warming or the rest of us living on the planet..

If you think it's bad over there, in the UK it now costs me £70 ($140) to fill up my Audi A4 Diesel - Which is just an ordinary car, certainly nothing like the vast Hummer!
Diesel here costs £1.24 ($2.48) per litre!

@Mike, after the comments from Europe I am thinking we have it pretty good.

yes you do Mike - my mini (with it's mini-sized tank) is costing $100 to fill, so I'm heading over to your side of the pond in a few weeks, just for a vacation from the fuel prices over here!! Oh, and i might just take some pictures while i'm there ... but that's obviously not the REAL reason for packin bags and sitting on planes:-)
anyway, i love the originality of this, and of course it demonstrates your usual mastery of a glorious blurry picture:-)
ps - i'd feel very honored if you'd mail me any recommendations for tasty 'brown' beer in NC as we'll be passin thru on our trip. we've discovered many a good micro-brewery by accident on our stateside adventures, but I'm all in favour of cutting down the 'gas' costs and random approach:-)

I think it would be cheaper if we could use cash for fuel sometimes... ;)
Love this one, Mike - really creative! :)
