I know this is way off topic for a Dad o twins, but then again, is it really? I was just chatting with Martin over at Xbox4nappyrash and we were talking about how bad gas prices are in the Netherlands vs America. He is right, the Netherlands tops the list for the most expensive gas. Sorry Martin. You’re welcome in my neck of the woods anytime. Just bring some Murphy’s with you.
So, as we start our summer plans and vacation destiatios await us, here is some food for thought. Gas prices around the world brought to you by air-inc.

Wow, I had no idea it was the most expensive in the world.
Now only if we had a our very own oil company here in Holland, like say SHELL….
whats the US price by the way?
My in-laws just returned from Dublin and said gas prices there are between $7-8. Wonder why the discrepancy between what they claim and your list here. In any event, I’m moving to Venezuela!
$3.96 here the other day for the cheap stuff.
Our prices in Vegas fall in between Estonia and Andorra at around $3.79 per gallon.
I don’t feel so bad now living in the US. $3.89 a gallon for gas where I live (cheap stuff).
Side note: Venezuela, here I come.
$3.79 here in Orlando. Wow, the Saudi’s and Kuwaiti’s must be pissed! Kuwait has burned for oil and the Venezuelans get cheaper gas?
You folks DO know a gallon in the UK is 4.54L and a gallon in the US is 3.76L dont you?….
If you compare apples and oranges the answer you will get is a lemon….
I think the price you have for Norway i wrong as well. The price for 1L is about 13 kroner that will give you about 9.5 USD a gallon.
Your posting is a little misleading. You forgot to mention that the base source of information for these gas prices is CNN Money dated March, 2005. I have the original article. Needless to say, prices are much higher now.
