I know a lot of us older folks are on limited and fixed incomes and I am sure this will be a factor to consider in making a decision to go or not to go. According to the news it is going to be even higher by then.

FYI, it was up to 96p per litre in the UK when we left to come over,
that's approximately $US7.00 per gallon. That was for freeway service
stations, and a little lower round the towns.

I know that $2.80 a gallon sounds a lot for you guys, but it is really
cheap still compared with Europe. Tim & I were discussing this
yesterday, it is about $2.78 to $2.85 round San Jose, depending on the
outlet.
