and how much is gas, well you know how much do you think it will cost to fill up the tank?


When I was in Caracas, Venezuela for work not so long ago gas was like 0 cents a gallon!
THe problem there was parking. On certain days you weren't allowed to drive your car. License plates with an even numbered had to stay home
for a couple days a week. Some very pretty women over indeed there but not quiet like in Colombia from what I was told and they mentioned lots of plastic surgery (kind of like Miami Beach here).
Insurance was 4,300,000 pesos per year. The insurance is cheap since no one steals these types of car here, never. I do not know the price of gas because I did not pay any attention when I put gas into it. But 50,000 pesos put the indicator from where the computer was asking for gas to exactly the 1/2 tank mark.

In Bogota there are driving restrictions based on the plate number at times. Where I live they only restrict motorcycles. I got a ticket for riding my scooter just a week ago since I had the wrong plate number.

Plastic surgery is too common especially in Medellin. But that being said, Colombian women are the best in Latin America. I have been all over Latin America and there is no comparison. Just think of Miami Beach without the attitude.
