I just paid $6.71 per gallon for diesel
Granted, I'm currently in France. It's no wonder RVing isn't as popular here as it is in the United States. 57.32 Euros for 43.46 Liters. Doesn't sound as bad if you think of it in liters.

Heavens, I saw all sorts of RV's in Switzerland this past May. Despite the horrendous fuel costs and road taxes.
Those bakeries made it all worthwhile!
Just returned from Germany-Switzerland-Austria. Was driving a car - not an RV. However, saw relatively few RV's (at least relative to the US) except in isolated scenic areas. Gasoline approximately $8.50/gallon (US) - + the road tax sticker purchased at the Swiss & Austrian borders. Great bakeries - exceptional coffee - but did you notice no one has screens on their windows? Often times saw flies all over the baked goods in the display cases. No one seemed to notice. Great fun though - already planning a return.
We spent the last 9 weeks in Europe. We were amazed at the amount of RV traffic in Germany, Belgium and France. It seemed like every 5th or 6th vehicle on the Autobahn was an RV. Many of the campgrounds we saw along the rivers were packed as well. There were less in Italy and Spain but once you got to the coast there were lots again.
