Does anyone else suffer from this crazy system?


No.

On the bright side:
By law all gas prices must be clearly visable and accurate from the road.

On the downside
Gas is currently between ~$1.95 and $2.50 a gallon in FL depending on location and grade fuel. It's expensive everywhere regardless where you go, doesn't much matter :pissed:

How much is a US Gallon? Here in Norway a metric litre of 95 octane unleaded is 10.50 NOK average! That's nearly $1.60! :-o

... so from my viewpoint, you're still getting away cheaply :-P
 


1 US gallon 1 liter = 4.7854118 liters

No, just more fairly. Also consider that the USA is a huge country, long distance travel is a necessity for many americans. Hell I live in one of the most booming areas of the country and I travel between 70 and 110 miles per day
