Yeah, don't remind us! I remember being able to fill my car, buying a pack of cigarettes and a Slurpie for $20.

You still can if you have a two gallon tank.

$4.59 for diesel where I fill up. Still a ways from the $5.59 it hit a couple of years ago.

I remember when gas hit .99 cents a gallon. We all thought ...Yikes.

Thanks. I'm all depressed now.
I remember the days when I bought 100 Octane fuel from my local airport FBO to put in my 70 Trans AM. It was about $1.00/Gallon then.
I think the good stuff, High Octane gas at the pump was $.66/Gallon.
Damn Dennis! How far back was those prices?! Did they have cars then? Sorry Man... I saw an opening and took my shot. :giggle:

No worries, it's all good.....I'm not that old, but I do remember my Dad bitchin' because regular gas was .24 cents and the station arcross the street was .22 cents..ah the memories of gas wars...this was late 50's early 60's and there was no such thing as UN-leaded gas..!..Sunoco 260 baby, was like Av-gas..Something like a 100+ octane..

i remember when all i needed was a six pack of empty bottles to fill up my minibike . that was the late 70's

Don't tell anyone but I also remember the 60's. I was small, but I do remember.
I also remember the no lead law. The pumps had both leaded and non-leaded. The non-leaded nozzle had a smaller OD. The car manufactures built the gas tube hole smaller so the bigger OD gas nozzle couldn't fit. There was a big warning lable on the pump saying how illegal it was to use leaded gas. I didn't care! I had to make a bigger hole, get rid of the catalytic converter, and replace it with a "test pipe". It ran much better! Ah, the old days....

I can remember over here when fuel was $0.35 per liter
