NEW YORK — The national average for self-serve regular unleaded gas was $3.88 a gallon on April 22, up 11.53 cents per gallon from April 8, according to the nationwide Lundberg Survey.

Your gallon is 160 oz, whereas ours is only 128 oz. So that would be $4.85 per UK gallon. and 4.85 USD = 2.9378 GBP

People in the US are really mad about the high cost of gasoline.
