I found it for $1.70. I put it in my 2010 CaddY DTS.
It runs on Propane.

Before on UHH I have posted a photo of my Uncle who ran a small station in Ill. His sign stated 8 gal for a dollar including tax. That was perhaps in 1946.

Have you notice the Republicans have not bragged that they forced O'B to lower prices on gas? He was of course as they said the reason for the high prices... and the prices had nothing to do with the international market.

Obama was being blamed (incorrectly) when the price of gas was going up. Will he be praised (also incorrectly) now that the price is coming down?

When I was a teenager with a car (late 50's) we could buy Amoco white gas for $.19 and regular gas for $.17. Two dollars' worth actually got you some where. LOL

Gas was selling for $2.99 a gallon at many stations along I-75 in South Georgia yesterday. Even in South Florida - not usually known for cheap gas - it was selling for $3.15. Love it!


It's great and it's all the fault of Bush...............

Inland Empire - California, I am happy when I see $3.69 but have seen as low as $3.59.

When I got my first car, gas was around $0.90 give or take. I remember throwing a huge fit when it jumped to $1.50.

I had the same reaction when it eventually rose to $2.50.

These days, I look back with great fondness at $2.50 gas.

As usual make it political. Just enjoy the price while you can,

In the UK, it's the equivalent of over $7 per (US) gallon! :shock:

Over $4/gallon here. Pisses me off especially when we have the second or third largest reserves in the world

Too right!

1 US Gallon is 3.785 litres

so £1.39 * 3.785 = £5.26

current exchange rate 1.5676 *£5.26 = $8.24 a gallon

Sadly, it equates to about 27 cents/litre=92.6 cents a gallon
