The Bloomberg Gas Price Ranking sorts 60 countries by average retail price and by "pain at the pump," which measures the percentage of average daily income needed to buy a gallon of fuel.

Think your gas bill is high? Imagine shelling out $9.89 a gallon -- the price at the pump in Turkey. The average Pakistani or Indian would have to put in more than a full day's work, on average, to afford a single gallon of gas in his country.

Of course, not all gas tanks are created equal. For example, Americans guzzle more fuel than anyone else. Even low gas prices in high-consuming countries take a toll on family budgets. Click ahead to see where your bill stacks up.
