"Only last year, gas prices were at record lows: 90 cents a gallon for regular unleaded then, to $1.56 a gallon and higher today. But oil-producing nations, including members of the OPEC Cartel, agreed last year to limit the supply of oil they put on the market, driving prices up to beyond $30 a barrel. After adjusting for inflation, these prices are still nowhere near historic highs set in 1980, which hit $2.66 a gallon."

Why don't you quote prices in 1987 when it was 67 cents a gallon?? What utter crap!!!!!!!!!!!!

why don't you quote prices in 1965 when it was 24.9/10 for full service. I know cause that was my after school job. pumping gas and checking oil and air in tires and people would only buy a dollar's worth...some would even buy whatever change they had.
