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".Brooklyn Park actually. Not much difference though. It's usually fairly quiet in my neighborhood (other than then drunks down the street, but I think they stopped drinking so it's pretty quiet there too).
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.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.
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.Late night televangelists telling me that I can be miraculously rich if I send them $1000.00. Horse whip them, tar and feather them, then run their butts out town on a rail.
Is your friend named Colt, or Smith & Wesson, or Ruger, or Glock?You should live in Chicago and tune into the local news every night to get the daily body count.

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.Fuel prices up again !!!
Just topped up the tank for my trip back to Norfolk, and payed £6.45 per Imperial gallon ( that's $8.87 at today's exchange rate ),
Bl**dy outrageous !!!!!
We're paying $4.09 for a gallon of regular here. But then what else would you expect? It's Crapifornia.Ouch! I complained paying $4.06/Imperial Gallon for Premium but suddenly feel better.
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!Great price.

Iran must produce LOTS more gasoline than it needs.
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.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.
Wherever you go, Sky is same!Pretty much the same wherever you go.
