What do you remember paying for GAS

[rob07002]

Well you all have to remember that its spring time in most of the northern hemisphere and suprisingly the terrorist countries are having a hard time producing oil so they MUST raise the price because its so rare and hard to find right now...

But don't worry they promise to find more by October to give us infidels a break just before the winter which coincidentaly makes it harder to produce oil again to heat your homes...

You know if I weren't a moron I would swear they do it on purpose...

Time to buy more Exxon stock, or stock in hell as I like to call it.

Oh, BTW I think $1.09 was the cheapest I remember back in 90-91 when I got my license

Filled up my Expedition yesterday and it was $76+ for a little over 26 gallons!

At any rate I remember 28.9 cents/gallon in 1971 I believe.
(they have to get that extra 9/10ths)
I had a mini bike with a 1/2 gallon tank and I could fill er up for .14 cents when it was bone dry.

i started driving in 93 i think in mass it was just below 90 cents. Wish it was back. Now filling with the race fuel down the street is like 6 a gallon. I want leaded fuel back.
any one remember this quote.
The best movie ever made.

Curt: Why is it every girl that comes around here is ugly? Or has a boyfriend? Where is the dazzling beauty I've been searching for all my life?
John: I know what you mean. The pickin's are really gettin' slim. The whole strip is shrinking. Ah, you know, I remember about five years ago, take you a couple of hours and a tank full of gas just to make one circuit. It was really somethin'.

I saw 5 for a dollar several times when I was a kid and 4 for a dollar was everyday. When I started driving in 76 it was around .49 to .56 cents and then it went to a buck several years later. Then in the late 80's it went to 1.50 for awhile and then when we thought it was going to go to 2 bucks it went back down to 1 dollar and we all thought Clinton was great.

If wages went up like gas we would all be rich by now. The current president is not going to make it any better anytime soon and doesn't really care from what I see.

Now I am really glad I bought the Vibe instead of the High Sierra truck. 10mpg more is making a difference at the pump in my pocket.

That's why the oil companies posted a record $37,000,000,000 profit for one quarter last year. It's price gouging no matter how you look at it. All the liberals lied! They said this war was about oil! We should be paying $.75 a gallon again [rant off]
Anyway. I remember paying $.759 a gallon for leaded gas. All my friends had to buy unleaded for $959 a gallon.

We have more than enough oil underground in THIS country between TX, OH, PA, CO, CA and AK and just offshore to all but break the need to import it from anywhere. If we could just get the hippies and NIMBYs (not in my back yard) to pull their heads out we could get a little relief. I paid $50 yesterday in Orange County to fill the tank in my Buick LaCrosse company car. 16 gallons, absurd.
