[quote martin]Some gas pumps have trouble with anything over 99.99. Have to end the transaction and begin another for $100.00 or more.
Here in Germany most pumps are good for 999.9 EuroCents per litre so we are good for $57 a gallon without any changes to the pumps. Current prices are in the $8.50-$10.00 per US gallon so we have a little while to go. Never heard of limits on fuel transactions anywhere in Europe. Not surprising with the prices we pay.
I will be filling up today or tomorrow for the first time in 7 weeks so it will be a "surprise to see what my tank will cost" (I usually put in 44-47 litres 12-13 US gallons)(9.7-10.5 UK Gallons for anyone that cares about these things).
(Renault Modus diesel: Average fuel consumption 5.1l/100km .44mpg(US) 55mpg(UK) over the last 2k miles or thereabouts.)
