    So do I. It hung around that level until a day in 1999 when one morning on my way to work I noticed it jumped 50-60 cents overnight.

    Duh Dave I read it and thought you were talking about driving. Not just the gas prices. My brain fart.

    All this cheap gas, time off, and people can’t even take a vacation. Load board for Chicago is pathetic. I get home after this adventure. Might as well stay there.

    We had an old VW dune buggy. My brother said if I could get it running, I could have it.

    Put new plugs and ignition parts, wires, cleaned out the carb, and it came to life.

    He went back on his word ( no surprise), but Dad let me and my friends drive it.
