Re: Are summer gas prices gonna hamper your upgrade plans this summer?

1 US dollar is worth about 3/4th of a Euro, but that doesn't have anything to do with what he said. A US Dollar is worth 100+ Japanese Yen, but that doesn't mean you can get more for your US Dollar over there, it's just a conversion factor. The cost of gas in Europe will vary from country to country though, since the reason it costs so much more is due to the taxes that each individual country imposes. They tax gasoline over there like we tax cigarettes here, to try to discourage the overuse of it.
