May 2018

is true, but I did do a little research to compare 2014 and 2018 since I keep reading that prices were not this high since 2014

In 2014 the median income was $51,939. and on memorial weekend national average gas price was $2.49 per gallon

in 2018 the median income is 58,829.00 this weekend the average gas price is 2.96 per gallon

I've been alive too long, it's just one big circle

We have been down this road before and we will survive it. All those driving gas guzzlers will probably trade in their cars/SUVs for smaller cars then gas will go down enough for it to be the new normal and SUVs will become popular again and on and on we go
