Petrol down south here is getting closer to going under $3.00 for a gallon of regular very soon. BJ's & Costco have the cheapest prices and jut re-upped BJ's for another year as I got a pop-up on my phone for a $25/year special, so I grabbed it. It's mainly for their petrol prices as we have a location right near work & the house. Not going out of the way to use their pumps like I did with Cumberland Farms. I'm not one to waste any just to get a lower price if it can be helped. There are a few products we do get at BJ's & split with one of the kids, so was worth re-upping for another year.

Yesterday we were on a busy highway, 50 mph but everyone drives 55 to 60 of course. The highway has 6 lanes, 3 each direction. I was headed north, I was stopped at a very long red light, there were at least 20 cars in each of the 3 lanes waiting. The sidewalks are fairly wide here, made for golf carts. Guess what was driving down the sidewalk at about 60 mph....an older model white pickup truck. Then a black one went by going about 60 as well, with 2 wheels on the edge of the road and 2 on the grass.....a little better than the sidewalk but still..............

They’re not falling here in the Burgh. Yesterday I noticed a few stations that were in the $3.9X range.

Come over to Ohio, PUG is under $3 in Youngstown.
One of the things I liked about my Lincoln was that I could make it to Ohio from central CT without having fill up.
If it drops much lower in Ohio it could be worth making the trip.
Of course PA has one of the highest if not the highest gas tax in the country. You’d think we’d have some of the best roads because of that tax but that’s not the case. If I had to bet I’d say our roads are some of the worst in the country. So, what’s going on here? And I don’t want to hear it’s the freeze/thaw climate. That excuse is getting old.

With all the years of collecting high gasoline taxes though, a person would think those problems would have been solved; or at least brought under some kind of control.
I think its incompetence, ignorance, and just not caring.

Let’s not forget, I never said I don’t pay taxes, just not all of what they
want.
That’s my way of making them more palatable.

You don't get to complain if you shortchange the gov't what they're due.
Choices have consequences.

2.0L uses 0w-16 synthetic.
That sounds good but they’d only waste that too.
A lot of the money used for PA roads comes from state gasoline taxes. So paying state income taxes doesn’t do very much, if anything, for the roads.
I’ll admit the federal government kicks in some but I’ll let all of the US citizens who feel guilty about not paying all of what they owe carry me through for a few more years.

I need to stop and try out the EV5 or whatever that is called. I saw one on the lot and thought it looked cool.

I don’t know what you mean when you say “schemes “. I didn’t say anything about trying to avoid paying gas tax. However, if I could find a way to do that I would. Those pumps don’t operate on the honor system like governments do with their tax forms.

There are still areas being worked on but overall it's a much better experience.

Same with solar panels. The government will charge or find another way to collect taxes eventually. The money saving schemes will end up costing more in the long run.

Then, in 1972, they passed a federal law making it illegal to tamper with an odometer. Bingo, end of his business.
