My DIL was laughing yesterday. Gas at a local station dropped one penny. People just aren’t going to spend 4 dollars a gallon for gas unless they have to and what we buy we are stretching. I plan my route to conserve a much as I can. I used to fill up once a week. Now I’m making it last for two weeks.
Since the end of March, I have cut my gasoline usage in half.
The financed auto loan, especially on trucks, is a real burden. You are better off parking the thing and buying an old economy car beater for a thousand in cash. Unfortunately you still have to make the monthly payments and can’t drop the guzzler from insurance if you financed it.
