Nope.  I lived in New Zealand where 5 years ago gas was over a dollar a 
liter. That's in the vicinity of $4 a gallon. I appreciate the cheap 
prices we have for gasoline. Cheapest in the world, I'd guess.
Just think, when gas goes up a penny, your total gas bill, assuming a 
fuel -efficient car, which you can't afford not to have- might be 10-12 
pennies, not enough to even enough to buy a candy bar or a coke.
Corrected for inflation, it's probably the cheapest it's ever been.
