There's nothing like a road trip to show just how much we overpay for gasoline in California.

And we're back in California. What a difference a few states makes.

@kyle in Germany you would pay round about 5,90$

@kyle in the Midwest, I paid $2.06 a gallon yesterday. Gas prices in most major populations are just criminal!

@kyle This is exactly half the price of the gasoline in Bosnia, and almost everywhere in Europe.

@kyle I understand what you mean. We have pricey gas in NV (not as bad as CA, but still . . . ) and part of the fun of road trips is the cheap gas everywhere else.

@pkimpton Thanks for checking in. I'm up North so we are on the clear.

@kyle IMO we're all still under paying for fossil fuels. EU prices are the closest so far to actually covering the lifecycle cost to recapture CO2 emissions.
