Do I miss $.50 a gallon gas? Sure. Minimum wage was $2.00 and hour. So it wasn’t really that cheap.

Around 65-66 in Mi. gas was around $ .17-19 per gallon at these two stations across the road from each other. One day Jim dropped his to $ .13. 1968 Sunoco 260 would be $ .36.

Got my license in 1986. Gas was about .85/gal - and I was working for $3/hr. I worked an hour for 3.53 gallons of gas. Car got 15mpg. Thats 52mi/hr.
2019: Gas is ... lets say 3.25/gal. People can work for $15/hr. 4.62 gallons per hour worked. Small car gets 30mpg. thats 138mi/hr. That explains it.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
