What do you remember paying for GAS

[zbugger]

The Tahoe takes 87 and at $3.00 a gallon, it's $90.00 to fill up.

Ha ha ha..... I filled up for $26 the other day, and I know I get better gas mileage than you.

I have a friend with a Suburban, road master edition, 42 gal tank. Do the math :$3/gal= $120.00 a tank! I vaguely remember gas wars, where qas stations would under price each other, $0.11/gal. It wasn't that long ago(6-7 years) that a barrel of crude was around $19.00. My brother the geologist stated that when a barrel of oil is cheaper than a case of beer-it's TIME TO PARTY. Man I miss that party!

This is the cheapest I ever paid. And it wasn't that long ago. Feb. 1999 in Oklahoma City.

Heh... Three gas stations at the corner. Right now two of them have 87 at 3.25 and one is still sticking to it's 3.09. It's frightening. Needless to say, I don't go to the Shell or the Chevron. I stick to the ARCO and the Valero. And to think, I'm missing 2.49 for 87.....
Oh, and Keith, I haven't EVER seen gas at that price that I can still remember.

makes me want to drive to Oklahoma just to fill up.

starting to think about investing in one of these.



in a year, its contents would triple in value.

i think the cheapest i remember was in .80 cent range back when i started driving. it was less when i rode my mini bike around, but back then dad was buying the gas . in high school i could still get leaded gas. and good ole sunoco 260. now it cost me $80.00 to fill the avalanche with cheap weasel pi$$ 87 octane. i don't understand why fuel prices seem to go down every winter when the demand on heating oil rises. and go up in the summer when the demand goes down. it's pretty obvious that they are just jacking up the prices for driving season. and i still can't figure out why diesel fuel costs more that gas most of the time? i no expert on the the refining methods used. but i would think it takes less effort to turn crued oil into deisel than gas?

I am 28 years old and the cheapest I have ever payed was $.75 a gal about 1998-1999 time frame.

3.35 for 87 Regular at the Shell on the corner. 3.55 for 91 Super. It's beginning to look ridiculous.

It's beginning to look ridiculous.

It's far beyond ridiculous at this point.

Notice my post yesterday that it was 3.25? Yeah, up $.10 in a day. I don't think so. I know something's up, and it reminds me of Enron.
