I think the reason the UK pays $10 is probably because of there socialist health care system. I dont see why they would have to pay over twice the price we pay for a barrel of oil when there closer to the source. I figure they tax gas heavy to pay for that baby! My problem is I have to have my big truck. As do house contractors and pretty much anyone that has to haul stuff or pull a trailer. Lets face it a hybrid car isnt gonna pull a few thousand pounds. So im screwed , ha ha.
