drove by the QT on bowen in arlington this morning, gas was $4.15. By lunch it was $4.49. People laughed about $8 gas, you still laughing, because it's coming.

I was doing 60-mile daily roundtrip before Covid. Glad I'm retired now as that trip would cost me around $30 a day with gas & tolls. Now 6-mile roundtrip to the gym and less than that for groceries. FJB killed my planned twice monthly 300-mile lease trips that I looked forward to after retirement.

My 6.4 Hemi is parked and driving the wife's car unless really needed. This is just plan stupid. November can't get here quick enough to kick all the lib's to the curb that we can.

Yep as I posted in the Inflation thread, I had 40 miles until empty in my truck and it cost me $131 to fill it up on Friday at $4.11 a gallon. Truck only gets about 12.4 MPG so gave me a whopping 425 miles until empty.

I’m going to start siphoning fuel from Democrats tanks, surely they won’t mind if I borrow some.. I know where a few live if anyone wants to run by and fill up.

Well, a good % of their vote comes from those who don't even own a vehicle and use mass transit so there ya go. SMDH
The other part of this crazy BS is the fact that the far left will not take credit for it one bit and continually blame this inflation on everything and everyone but themselves. If it wasn't so bad it be comical.

Jackarse convenience store in Goldthwaite yesterday jerked their price from an already unreasonable $4.32 up to $4.45 to catch all the Sunday traffic going home. I filled up Sat morning in Hamilton for $3.99. Nobody else's price between Goldthwaite and Lubbock had changed since Thursday.

...and that's gas prices. Diesel boys must be really taking an azz whoopin! I filled my truck up this morning and it cost $743, the truck has a 60 gallon tank and I filled the 100 gallon tank on the bed with on road fuel fuel since everyone’s saying we’re about to run low on it. Who knows if we are but I can tell you I was cussing the entire time it was filling up. Not only do I say FJB but his entire POS family and every swamp rat in DC…
