Dear listers,

The fuel prices in your country we can only dream of over here in Europe. I
pay more than a Euro per litre of fuel for my jeep which consumes 1 litre
every 6 kilometers. Which makes it a very expensive means of transportation.
But I will not trade the car for a more economical one in my life. I think
fuel consumption is part of driving a military vehicle, not exactly the fun
part but part of the price you have to pay if you want to drive a military
vehicle. Please don't take this wrong, it is not my intention to harm
feelings.

Regards,

Cor
