Hehe... When I was in Sweden 10 years ago, gas was 1.00USD per liter. I said that was crazy and that it would never fly over here!
Look where we are now - I never imagined it would be true...

Sweden has very high taxes there, but from my understanding, their government takes care of their people from the cradle to the grave. Excellent government healthcare, retirement plans, etc. They get their taxes back in the end.

The thing I did not like when there was the sheer lack of cool old American cars! I am sure glad to see some Swedes here who own some!
