I don't remember what it was per gallon but, my folks had a big Buick and my Mother always went in and had them put $3 worth in the tank.  It lasted a long time before another fill up.  :wave: :wave:

Not real sure, but I think it was .25 or .30 for me, too. Too long ago to remember. 1968 or 1969.

I can't remember exactly, but I sure do remember when the cost of gas skyrocketed in the early 2000s. It's never been a reasonable price since then sadly.

.99 cents.  I remember it being as low as .89 and .79 in the south when we used to drive every summer to NC.  Gas is usually cheaper in the south.
