I actually used to live in TX.. Killeen TX to be exact.

I remember by dad saying that it used to cost 10 bucks to fill up his tank. I put in 20 bucks today and that can only get me to work and back twice.

[kentatm]

yea it was cheap as hell back then.

we used to be able to just drive around for fun it was so damn cheap.

I'd fill up my Explorer and we'd hit up all the back roads expanding our minds.

[-p.tiddy-]

yes I noticed gas prices were looking low the last time I filled up...

It would be strange to see it in the $2.00 range...it's been so long




but the "dooms" crowd will still be here to remind us that the country is screwed and the US is about to implode

Ahhh... I so miss that. there were times i would just drive out for hours just to see and experience new places.

....

My avalanche is pretty good with gas. i spend about 80-100 bucks a week. i use to spend twice the amount when i had my v8 ram.

what I love are the people around here in Dallas pissed at Obama for the gas prices being high who were the exact same ones saying it was in no way Bush's fault when they were high under him.


Whats even funnier are the people who are surprised when it goes up in the summer.

Umm... it ALWAYS goes up in the summer. People have the memory capabilities of goldfish it seems.


of course, the real issue with gas prices are the market speculators but I guess it would be attacking capitalism to call them out for repeatedly f-ing everyone over with their casino gambling ways.

People in Europe pay more for gas, and have forever. The way the price of gas is politicized in the U.S. is hilarious. It's like Americans don't understand that oil prices are set by the global market, and America has little or nothing to do with it. The fact that oil/gas prices are used in political campaigns in the U.S. is laughable at best.

[B-Low]

Obama lowered gas prices down there to get the racists to vote for him

[doublethetrouble]

its almost 6 bucks a gallon in vancouver

Haha, remember back in the day when you jumped in your car, saw it was low on gas, so you just pulled out a crusty old 20-dollar bill out of your pocket and you were good? Tank filled. Muhaha, seems like a joke now.

In Serbia, 6.80 per gallon
