Depending on your intended use. I was talking about my daily driver. I had a 1971 Vega 'funny car' with a Keith Black hemi which would have been super exotic to attempt to drive as a daily driver starting with the 5500 RPM stall converter. But sure if you want to compare a 25 years ago hot rod with my under $30k 4-door Chevy.... You got me, you go back 25 years and tell me how it turned out, especially in regards to a discussion of gas prices in 2026... I'll wait

You seem seem to be the one hiding behind the Internet, I'll give you detailed directions should you wish to ask me if I'm bipolar to my face. I'm not sure what kinda kick you'd get from coming here to insult a 75 year old 5' tall 4x cancer survivor, but whatever, perhaps elder abuse is your style, and the hospital isn't far. Thanks for jumping all over my post about the gas prices I saw on my first trip by myself since I've been cleared to drive again. Id return the favor, except at my age crawling back up from your level might be difficult.
I see Truck and Bear both responded concurrently. I haen't nailed down which personality is which response though, that will take some time to work though.

I'm still not certain there's a third one in there or if one is on medication that frequently gets skipped.

OR is it Truck IN Bear, as in Truck is trapped inside Bear and trying to get out? Ther's a lot to work though.

Either way, Bless yer heart.
 
I don't think the numbers quoted above include tax. These are industry figures. The price to the consumer was over one dollar per gallon during that era.
Good point, I hadn't considered taxes, so I asked:

The gasoline prices for 1991 in Northern California include federal, state, and local taxes. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) states that its published retail gasoline prices incorporate all taxes paid at the time of sale.

In 1991:

  • Federal excise tax: 18.4 cents per gallon
  • California state excise tax: 15.0 cents per gallon (effective January 1, 1991)
  • Additional local taxes and fees may also apply, varying by jurisdiction.
Therefore, the average price of $1.14 per gallon reported for California in 1991 reflects the total retail price with taxes included.
 
You're the only one here making vieled threats and calling people out.....maybe take a break from the keyboard for a bit.....
Sure, it isn't offensive at all to ask someone you've never met if they're bipolar. All I did was suggest that they would have a better response from me if they said that to me in person, and then I was accused of hiding behind the internet and being some kind of Internet thug or something, so I pointed out that I'm not the one hiding behind the internet I'll give you my freaking address, and directions if you're man enough to ask me that to my face.... But whatever. Veiled threat? You're kidding right? If you think that's a threat you must be terrified crossing the street.
 
It was probably $1.00. I remember a five-dollar date in the mid-60s. A buck's worth of gas, $1.10 for a six-pack of Blitz, and a dollar a carload for the drive-in. That's only $3.00, maybe we got two six-packs. :)
You were living large on 5 bucks an hour way back when.
I was happy getting that much washing dishes in 1990 .
 
You say here that which you wouldn't say to someone in person then YOU are the reason we're going to ultimately fail, and what's wrong with America these days. If this is how you treat allies, and not your enemies then you're just a coward.
