The first servo I stopped at had run out of diesel. A tank normally costs me $100 less.

      There would be mass riots, people are already pissed and it’s only $4 a gallon now on average.

        And I’ll add that even the Australian numbers are on the relatively low side with parts of Europe approaching $12 USD per gallon for diesel. Americans have no idea how cheap fuel is there by comparison.

        It was just above $7 a gallon for premium, and $6.50-$6.60 a gallon for regular when I biked passed the gas stations here in IB yesterday.

      When I converted litres to gallons Google told me that is only 19.2 gallons, so it would be $12.03 a gallon. There would be riots, and more mass shootings.

      Edit: I just noticed that you specified USD. I didn’t convert out of AUD.
