Each person that owns a car or any form if "Vehicle" in Iran, has a fuel card! This card will be charged by 60 liters at the beginning of each month of Persian calender and costs 15000 rials per liter. After this ends, The rest is calculated as "Azad", costs double.
1 USD =~ 275000 IRR (today Exchange rate).
The Emergency, Police and Military ones have their own special cards.

You should live in Chicago and tune into the local news every night to get the daily body count. They don't even mention the car jackings if there isn't shooting. Hardly a week goes by without a running gunfight on one of the expressways. My neighborhood is pretty quiet but if i'm out after dark and expect to have to stop for gas or something I make sure I'm carrying a "friend".
Can't wait to get the f out of this city

Great price. At the exchange rate you describe above, your first 60 liters of gas is about $.1833 per liter, or $.8344 per imperial gallon, or $.6945 per U.S. Gallon. Your Azad price is still great - $1.389 per U.S. Gallon. U.S. Wholesale spot prices are between $2.00 and $2.25 right now. Retail pump 87 octane gas, 10% ethanol blend is about $3.85/gallon in Boise today.
Iran must produce LOTS more gasoline than it needs.

Frank Zappa's '88 Tour recordings have some great stuff regarding TV evangelists. Can't believe anyone will want to watch the new production about Tammie Faye Baker. No accounting for taste.

Is your friend named Colt, or Smith & Wesson, or Ruger, or Glock?

Bummer. I filled up at the local Costco. $2.649 a gallon. That's 50 cents cheaper that the corner gas station nearest my house.

We're paying $4.09 for a gallon of regular here. But then what else would you expect? It's Crapifornia.

My son just got back from four years in California. He looked with awe at our "high" gas prices, hovering around $3/gallon.
Of course, here the gas is just a loss leader for the window washer fluid, road salt, lock de-icer, etc.

Great for outsiders! yes!!! but when you realize that the majority of Working people are paid about 180 to 230 USD per month, It is not much great!
And no need to talk about living costs!
The regime uses this "difrence" in fuel & lietterally, everything else, as a propaganda to say and show that living in "West" is not good! and Iran is way better under their reign.

Pretty much the same wherever you go. A few tears ago when the postal service decided that they needed a rate hike, they cited Germans gladly paying $1.00 per stamp and so our rates were a "bargain". They didn't cite that the average German salary is higher than that the average U. S. salary.

-Addendum to previous fire postings; current status of the two closest fires:
Dixie Fire 960,640 ac/ 1,500 sq mi
Caldor Fire 218,900 Acres / 342 sq mi
-Earlier in the week we were spared most of the heavy smoke shown in the photos I posted but yesterday and today have been really bad. We drove to Reno and on approaching the city from the east we couldn't see across the city or the surrounding mountains.
-Today we're under "red flag warning" due to low humidity (7-10%) and potential thunderstorms. If it rains the water won't hit the ground but the lightning will.
-To make the local conditions worse there are a few fires around Sequoia National Forest "only" about 20,000 acres but their smoke is drifting north so no matter which way the wind blows we're getting hit.

Todays gripes are that I was awoken at 0330 this morning by a policemen who informed my that a car had gone through my concrete wall, through some small trees, another low concrete wall and had embedded itself in the wall of my bungalow whilst I was 150 miles away on holiday. He explained that the car had broken a window and caused considerable damage to the two corner walls and smashed my patio doors. The police had then smashed the remaining patio door to check if anyone was injured. On my way home on the motorway, I was held up only 1.5 miles from home because a bus had caught fire and cloosed all 4 lanes.
Definitely a day to forget!

Better get a call then open the door and see headlights. I think you were lucky not being home.
