It's the federal gas taxes that is most of that cost. Don't blame the gas companies when the feds are taxing you to death.

18.4 cents per gallon. Diesel is 24.4 cents. Been that way since 1993.

Yeah, that's the problem...

Tech dawg probably got a 250 with truck nuts and can’t afford the diesel. But he got a 250 tho much like a lot of ppl that have 250’s. Got them just to say yea I drive a 250.

Just go to the poli board where they will explain to you it’s your own fault anyway, and quit being such a baby because orange daddy will fix it soon(er or later).

Don’t take this personally, but everywhere I look I see people cry-cry-crying about gas prices. Many narrow-mindedly let gas prices dictate their entire political opinion.

You know what I don’t see? People slowing down on being constantly up and down the roads. If it is such a burden to you financially,
I live just a few miles off of Interstate 65. It is a nightmare to drive during the Summer due to all the beach traffic. Gas prices are definitely not hampering people from clogging 3 lanes of interstate on the way to spend $350-500/night on a beach condo.

They use "rocket and feather" pricing. It's not right, but that's what they do.

It doesn't help everyone is looking at oil futures in August and wondering why gas prices in June are the way they are.

Yes, leaving prices high after production cost reduction is BS. But in the politics side, people need to start getting really pissed at iran if they weren't already. That shite hole country is dragging this war out and buy extension the manufactured gas price increases and inflation.

Only poor people and people that spend money poorly complain about gas prices. Please make sure you attribute this quote to me when you use it in the future as I came up with it myself.

I guess inflation has caught up with the OT. I remember when we were a proper forum.
