Re: Here we are - $3.00/gallon Diesel!

You're moaning about a rise in the low North American prices.

So long as you are nowhere near most of the rest of the developed world you
will gain little sympathy except from fellow NAs who make up, of course, the
majority of the participants of this newsgroup.. :-)

In the last two weeks I was driving around Italy in a rented diesel vehicle
and paid EUR 1.12 to 1.15 per litre. About the same as in the UK.

BTW it was, as last year, an Alfa Romeo 147 with a 1.9 l turbodiesel.
Maaan, what pulling power in third... Still the prettiest car in its class,
I think.
