Yesterday, after a nice long relaxing ride, I stopped at a local gas station, to Refill up my tank before coming home, I couldn't believe the price.. Almost $24.00 to fill up my fuel tank (regular gas)....... .It used to cost anywhere from $10 - $12.00 ....to re-fill.......... I guess my Social Security check will not go as far as it used too... If the price keeps going up, I'm going have to park my trike and start taking the

We used to buy drain oil from old Lens gas station., two cents a gallon. Put it in a old 54ford. The rear main leaked it out almost as quick as it went in. Then we discovered plastic dish pans. Wired it up up under the seal. That was it, fixed. Just empty the pan every couple days and pour it back in the motor.

I remember filling my tank and paying with 2 ones and getting change and this was a4.5 gal tank. I could sleep in a clean motel for $5-6 bucks a night. Times have sure changed

Paid 5 bucks a gallon yesterday. I have been spending, easily, $25.00 for a day's ride for a couple of months now. I have now, mentally, cancelled my 4-6 week planned summer tour. Fixed income and inflation do not get along well..... Jim

To paraphrase The late Senator Dirksen ‘5 dollars a gallon here 5 dollars a gallon there and before you know it becomes serious money 💰…

I am about to begin investigating the possibility of getting my electric golf cart licensed for street use here in Arizona. It does have what's called a street legal kit..... Mirror, Turn Signals, Horn, Lights. Inside the gated community I live in, golf carts are the usual mode of transportation. But the grocery store is about a mile outside our gate. I think electric travel to the store is in my future..... Jim

Read a few days ago 6-7 a gallon for gas and 9-10 for diesel by August is being predicted.

I am like the rest of you - don't like the high gas prices.

Seems like for me, love will win over don't like.
