I love all the comments from other countries stating “oh that’s still cheap.” Lil bro, I probably drive more in a month just for the menial shit I need to do than you do in a year, and I work from home. We don’t even fucking have sidewalks where I live.

Canadian comparison of regular: $6.39 USD/gal(us) is $2.35 CAD/L, currently. Regular gas around here in Edmonton, Alberta is between $1.45 CAD/L and $1.72 CAD/L depending how hard you look. That would be between $3.95 USD/gal(us) and $4.68 USD/gal(us)

Comparatively, fuel in Hong Kong is about $4/litre which is about $15/gallon… so count your lucky stars and stripes you warmongering fools.

Awww, did someone get addicted to unsustainable energy sources that are artificially cheap due to externalized costs? Edit: For context, the highest price shown in this picture is still 32% cheaper than gas was in Germany BEFORE your genius president decided to start a war, and around 42% cheaper than it is now. And seeing as we're still burning fossils like there's no tomorrow, it is apparently not nearly expensive enough yet.

If only conservatives weren't so focused on the economy the economy would be doing better. :(

Remember when all the coal rolling micropenises were whacking "I did that!" stickers stickers on everything? Wonder what they're all blaming now their man, Mango Mussolini and his team of cum-guzzling sycophants and fascist handlers are fully in charge? Is it still somehow Biden's fault? What's their play here?

I think this is all a conspiracy to make the price of a foot long seem cheaper. Big sandwich with the full support of Subway is manipulating the U.S. into performing atrocious acts to drive up fuel prices. Thus when you see the cost of a sub, you'll be like huh... That's actually not that terrible. /s

Diesel in Denmark is 11.2 USD/gallon ... but do keep complaining about your luxuriously low gas prices, which BTW was caused by the POTUS too many Americans couldn't be bothered to vote against.
-
@Furbag@lemmy.world 2026-04-04 19:51
Diesel is over $7/gal, it's fucking wild out here. I got a big pay bump last October and I felt like for the first time since the 00's I was finally out of the "just getting by" pay curve for Bay Area California and then this Iran war shit happens and now everything including gas is more expensive, clawing back all the gains I've made. At least there's a chance things might go back to normal if this shit ever ends, but I expect that prices are going to stay high long after the justification for raising them vanishes, just like with inflation.

I can appreciate that premium gas is only $.30/gal more, where by me it's $1.10/gal more 😡😤

People in CA blame Newsom.

@Treczoks@lemmy.world 2026-04-04 07:30
Be glad. Here fuel costs around 8-9 dollars equivalent for the same amount, thanks to your senile president.

Good time to buy the cheapest electric car you can find and use it for commute and round town driving. Leave the gas car for longer trips.

It's about $9.60 in Germany. Thanks, Trump.

@BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 2026-04-04 00:15
I couldn’t help but notice there’s a different price for cash and card, is that normal in the States?
-
@BananaTrifleViolin@piefed.world 2026-04-03 22:43
For comparison, prices near me in the UK are £1.55 a litre which is about $7.45 a gallon.

Californian gas prices disturb Americans and Europeans alike. They just disagree with the direction in which the price must be wrong.

@Stern@lemmy.world 2026-04-04 14:22
only about 50 cents less in Portland atm.

Germans are envious.

@AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2026-04-04 18:50
In IB, we hit $7.09 for premium, and $7.69 for Diesel. It's crazy, and it's gonna get worse.

@BigDaddySlim@lemmy.world 2026-04-03 20:41
I snapped this at a local station in MA this morning, luckily it's for my work truck so I'm not paying for a truck getting probably 8mpg filled twice a week

@jobbies@lemmy.zip 2026-04-05 18:50
Around $9 in Scotland if you're lucky. Big price spike lately cos of your war in the gulf. Cheers America!

@felixwhynot@lemmy.world 2026-04-03 19:21
FWIW in SoCal I’m seeing lows around $5.30
-
@bizarroland@lemmy.world 2026-04-03 19:25
I saw $6.79 a gallon for regular being advertised on a sign by the highway. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Thank God for Costco. $5.10 a gallon for premium and 5% cash back because I have their credit card.

I'm from the bay area. In Hawaii currently. Gas is cheaper here in the middle of the ocean

Most of the people in California don't care.

Replacing all the signs with ones that will support one more letter will suck

@taiyang@lemmy.world 2026-04-03 21:45
A little unfair since Chevron is often 50 cents to a dollar more, but it's still pretty bad. 5.60 a gallon at the cheapest. We still tax our gas though.
