Yea the prices in Europe for gas are high due to the taxes that are in it. I was over in Poland and it was pretty high up for a liter 3.25zl but that was still cheap compared when you just cross the boarder to Germany it jump up. As some of you man know the taxes bring up the price of gas in Europe a lot and in Poland I didn't see any of those taxes being used on the ****ty roads.

Yea I checked the prices today when driving around it's 1.81$ for 93 here in Florida it went up like 15-20 cents in two weeks.

As for the prices for gas in Poland I hope they will stay like that once they are in the EU.
