On way back up due to attacks on ships in Red Sea . Ships taking the long route . Oil : $73 Gas : $2.20(?) . Add taxes ( varies by state , etc. ) to the gas . This and many other scenarios for oil to increase in cost are the reason we own 2 small cars for savings on gasoline . It's a cycle through the decades .

I saw that in the news last night but I thought that was over by Saudi Arabia. We all know fuel goes back up eventually it's just a matter of when. I did the math and an extra fuel efficient car never paid off for us so that's not why we own two vehicles now. Thanks for the insight. I have a half tank of fuel in the truck right now & have been trying to wait until we hit the bottom to top off LOL.

I’m glad gas in my area is $3.20
