I was really chuffed getting petrol 2 days ago at 92p a litre, which I think is well over $5 a US gallon.

Like I said though, I think I'm just going to get myself a moped

try $8-$10 a gallon

i am interested in the possabilities of using ethanol fuel.

the main benefits are its more environmentally friendly and you don't have to rely on russia or the middle-east for power . + it is cheaper

however there are several drawbacks....

• ethanol cars struggle to start in colder tempretures
• the price of certain food stuffs would rise due to more crops being used for ethanol generation.
• milage of an ethanol car isn't as good as that of a petrol motor

ethanol cars struggle to start in colder tempretures

which rules people like me out, we get -40 celsius or colder here
