Under a buck. I think it was .87 for non-premium.

About the same.

I remember when people were thinking the world was going to end when gasoline hit $1.25 per gallon.


Started driving in 1993.

I don't remember the year, but in Caldwell Idaho when i was 15, started driving it was .79-.89 for regular.

I used to rely on 5 bucks to fill up over half a tank.

hopefully this coming Saturday. Apparently Black and Red are a difficult color to find in a manual.

Not sure when but I just went there for the past two weekends. I don't think I will be going there anytime soon jk but soon
