$1.799
Yup, you read it right. Another twenty cent increase in the price of a gallon of gas last night — the highest I’ve ever seen gas here. Unbelievable!
However, I did some figuring, and even a twenty cent hike only adds about $45 to the gas cost for our trip in a couple of weeks. That’s not horrible, but I know I’ll have sticker shock when I pay the man for the gas at each stop.
And, I’m sure that there will be places with much, much higher gas along the way. I wouldn’t be surprised to pay $2.50/gal somewhere along the way, probably the west coast or near the Grand Canyon.
