I spent sometime with one of my company UK units a couple of years
agoand as a "Salaried" Engineer one of my perks was a company gas card
that I was free to use up a rather high monthly limit (along with a
company car, size and type based upon pay grade). When I asked about
it, I was told that due to the way the UK taxes wages, this was one way
to give employees "raises" without triggering the outrageous tax
rate... so the $5 a gallon cost was totally a don't care issue., Not
so in the US where gas comes right out of pocket...

Actually here as well a company car often comes with a gas card. I
don't have one though (yet - actually in 2 weeks I should be starting a
new position that *does* have a car)
