STOP WHINING ABOUT GAS PRICES!

America should stop whining about their gas prices. It's ridiculous!
They should come and fill up their tanks in The Netherlands for a change.

We filled up our tank on the way over here at $ 2.399 per gallon.
Now,... in Europe we don't talk gallons. We're on the metric system.
And we don't use dollars. We have euros.

But let me tell you what WE pay for unleaded: 1.48 euros per litre.

1 gallon equals 3.7854 litres
Today 1 EURO equals $ 1.406

So with the euro/dollar exchange rate of today a quick count (3.7854 x 1.48 x 1.406) would tell you that for ONE GALLON we would pay $ 7.88 back home!!
Yes that's SEVEN DOLLARS and EIGHTY-EIGHT CENTS!!!!
(little over 3x as much as in the States!)

Now... are you still complaining??

Enjoy,
