Still $3.07 at my local station. I’d love to see under $3 per gallon gas.

$2.79 at Kwik Trip which is my local in SW Wisconsin. It’s been under $3/gallon for a number of months. MAGA! :)

The only reason gas prices are down is OPEC+ decided to produce more and go for market share rather than higher prices-lower sales volume. They couldn’t let us make all the fat profits. No way to know how long they will stay the course.

Adjusted for inflation, the price of gas is similar to 1968:
1968: $.34 a gallon. That’s $3.17 a gallon adjusted for inflation.

I just remember paying $2.26 a gallon at the end of President Trump’s first term. I know we’ve had inflation since then, but I would like to see a little under $3 per gallon.

Looks like around $3/gal in the Vegas area. Problem where we are is no pipelines. Tankers or rail. And refinery closures in CA where most of our petro comes from.

Could happen but the bottom price means nowhere to go but up. It’s the average price over long periods of time that matters. OPEC+ is top dog in the price/supply equation for now.
