I have filled up for $1. 69 for a while now. Gas is creaping up- over $1. 80 now for 87octane (reg here; mid in Colo, Wyo, et al). I have figured $150 for fuel to get out to Colo next week. SHOULD get 20 mpg on the hwy (taking clothes only this time round), but you never can tell, so I figured 16, then threw in a little extra cost.
But it still isnt as high as it was in the late 70s/ early 80s, if you figure in inflation. But I dont really want to get into that here.
