I remember gas wars when I was in HS. .23-.24 a gallon. I'd put .50 in the tank of my 1964 Impala & go cruising with my GFs. Of course minimum wage was $1.25 and we were making .50/hr for babysitting. I also recall being completely insensed when it cost me $5.00 to fill up my Pinto in 1975! I laugh about it now, but it wasn't funny then! :-)
