Admiring Florida

Even gas prices here are as if Trump is still in office. OK, I’m exaggerating but they are still a lot less punishing than what we have at home.

    Typically, we have high-ish gas taxes. But we are running a fairly huge budget surplus this year, and DeSantis declared a gas-tax holiday as a way to return some of the largesse.

    Gas has been going down pretty steadily where I am the past two weeks. Could be Florida is just leading the change.

    Even in coastal CA, gas went down from 7 to lower 6s in the last 2-3 weeks.

      It’s 4.09 right now in my neck of the woods.

        Filled my tank yesterday for 3.99/gallon. I was driving from Illinois (where I’d gone for my niece’s wedding) back to Wisconsin (where I live), and I refused to fill my tank before leaving because Illinois prices were between five and six bucks a gallon. As soon as I crossed the border into Wisconsin, it dropped back down to 3.99.

        It’s a little pathetic that 3.99 now seems low…

    I hate high gas prices and I cannot lie
    You other gas guzzler drivers may deny
    But when I see six buck a gallon diesel
    My wallet gets crunched

    …

    Yes, we do both high and low culture here, what of it? 🙂
