The sad thing is that gas prices really didn’t shoot up massively till the last decade. When I started driving in the early 1980s I was paying around 65 cents.

In mid 80’s when I started driving it was $1.05, and I would still end up running out of gas. Was 22 1/2 gallon tank. Never filled it.

Those were the good ol' days! That's around the time I started driving too. Gas was around 79 cents here.
