Default If you think the price of fuel is high

Can anyone tell me how drivers or trucking companies in other countries are making money?

The price of diesel in england just hit $8.50 a gallon.

The price we pay here in the united states is still cheap compared to other countries.

Part of the answer is you don't see giant bricks on wheels over there like you do here they use smaller rigs that are more aerodynamic.

Great Britain still uses the Pound Sterling.

1 pound is worth 1.99 usd.

The big change in the cost of fuel in the Uk is in the devaluation of the dollar.

Fuel costs have not changed that much there.
