I paid $3.999 yesterday and was happy to do it and thankful for the opportunity to defund my fun money stash.

I don't use E88 in any of my vehicles That is 15% ethenol.
I started driving in the spring of 1973, Gas was $0.32.9! My wife started a little over a year earlier and gas was $0.25.9. Even earlier I saw Sohio (now BP) at 17 cents. Road tax was 11 cents! Gasoline was a byproduct of making napalm! When Vietnam ended inflation and deregulation caught up with us.

And in 1973 as an E-4 I was bringing home less than $500 per month.(That included COMRATS and a housing allowance.)
When I started driving in 1968 I remember gas being $0.26-.29 per gallon. My first public Job in 1968 paid $O.90 per hour.
That worked out to less that 3 gallons of gas per hour of work.
Are there any jobs now paying less than $10.00-12.00 per hour? Seemes to me gas is still about the same as it was in 1968 unless it goes over $4.00 per gallon!
