Donald Trump’s 2020 prediction that gas prices under President Biden would reach $7.00 per gallon came true this week.
The price of gas in Gorda, California, reached $7.59 on Sunday. Fuel stations in Los Angeles County were also selling premium gasoline for more than $7.00 a gallon. One gas station in Los Angeles was advertising gas for $6.99.

Sooner or later Trump was always right. Much to the chagrin of the Rats.
We were warned by Biden and his misfits we’d all have to sacrifice and pay for Ukraine.
Putin with Biden’s assist has revived a dying industry.
Russian evonomy is bound to gas prices.
Putin can simply attack sny nieghbor to tighten prices with a DNC admin.
He will not sttack if the GOP can easily lower oil prices.

Challenging financial experts’ analysis, President Donald Trump claimed the stock market would crash if Joe Biden was elected president during Thursday night’s final presidential debate.
Here’s the link, the proof: https://youtu.be/krM_UAoJDQ4
Headed towards the U.S equivalent of 8 dollars a U.S gallon at my local station here in Oz. Big Thanx to every brain dead imbecile who voted for the single celled organism in the white house.
3.79 in Salt Lake City.
Not Gorda again. This tourist trap charges retail plus 50% for everything.
Not only that but remember when Trump was speaking in front of the UN I believe and he was talking about how everyone has to stop relying on Russian oil including Germany, and you see the German prick in the audience laughing at Trump..and how the commie media talked about that, how Germany was laughing at Trump, well WHOSE LAUGHING NOW
Wayne Gerdes has shattered records on fuel economy. Now, with US gas prices sharply on the rise, he offers tips for squeezing all you can down to the last drop.
Driving With Load (DWL) basically does the same thing as cruise control — with the driver keeping a steady and consistent pressure on the accelerator pedal, thereby using less gas. It’s particularly useful when you’re climbing small hills. “Your speed will change naturally — lower when climbing and higher when descending — but from the start of the elevation to the final elevation, your speed remains the same as you never changed pressure on the accelerator pedal,” Gerdes explained.
Love the long glide
If you’re exiting a highway and there’s an off-ramp ahead, start to slow down without using the brakes. “Just glide it for as long as possible so you transfer as much of your kinetic energy into distance,” he said.
Gliding, instead of braking right away, can you help avoid hitting E for a bit.
Ridge-ride in the rain
Edge your car a little to the right, closer to the sidewalk, during wet conditions. By not driving in the water that collects in a road’s well-worn grooves, you’ll get a smoother — and, therefore, more gas-efficient ride.
Kill that speed
Simply sticking to the posted speed limit can extend a tank of gas by up 20 percent. “Speed kills economy,” added Gerdes. “Driving faster does not necessarily get you to your destination faster but it will cost you at the pump or the charger — and your wallet!”

Speeding will deplete that tank of gas quicker than driving the speed limit.

Go easy on the acceleration
Don’t just floor the pedal — accelerate slowly but steadily. “If a fully-loaded 18-wheeler ahead of you is accelerating to 60 miles per hour in 45 to 60 seconds, why do you want to pass them?” Gerdes said. “Just accelerate with them and pass only after you are both up to speed.”
Be a better braker
Accelerating from a standing start is bad for fuel economy so if you see a red light ahead, slow down and try timing things so that you can glide through without stopping once it changes to green. “Hopefully you will arrive at the light with some speed as it turns green and you can accelerate back up to your target speed using a lot less energy,” Gerdes said. “Let the speed racer next to you beat you to that light ahead. And then wave to them when you go by at speed and they are accelerating from a stop.”

After a while it must be tiring being right all of the time.
Democrats are going to do absolutely nothing to help us with gas prices. This is a dream come true for them. Call it the Green New Deal 2.0. You drive less, turn the thermostat
down and conserve electricity because oil is expensive. You buy less meat because $15.00 a pound for beef is out of the question. You’ll buy less of everything when you don’t have the money and trucks and trains will drive less due to the higher prices. And the best part is IT’S TRUMP’S FAULT. Democrats will never be held responsible. But you’ll go looking to buy an electric vehicle.
On the bright side, my Exxon stock and Chelsea stock keeps on trucking higher.
Don’t forget “Mexican overdrive”
Coasting down hills in neutral.

Saw a claim of $7 bucks in San Fran but that makes no sense.
Local in Orange County says still under $5 there.
GasBuddy down, can’t check it.
DWL: These are the people that get themselves beat up in road rage incidents.
Not so fast. This just means he’s in on it. Right? YUGE SARCASM TAG!!!!!! But, you know someone will spin that up.
We all knew it before Biden was elected. They’ll blame it on Ukraine, but it was the plan.
This is what Bush League Republicans preferred to letting us keep our country.
They would rather assist to cheat Senile Joe in than let Trump secure the border.
