Argentina is a basket case in many ways, but they do have energy independence. "Gas" stations provide a wide mix of fuels, including propane.
Although Norway has energy independence, you don't see people driving cars with monster engines (well, there are a few exceptions). Cars in general are heavily taxed, as a luxury item. Engines over 2 liters are very heavily taxed.
About that chart, we have much greater dependence of foreign oil than we did in the seventies.
