I’m looking at over 1K in fuel to take the mother-in-law’s ashes to Canada. That’s not counting the fuel sure charge on ferry fairs. It was $6.09 for diesel at the tribal 76 station today,, up .40 since last week. I think my ranger will see more use hunting this year.

$6.50 a gallon is my cut off point for driving around in the woods. I’m buying a motorcycle within the next month to help curtail the gas prices. I’m 40 miles from the nearest gas station.

$5.10 for 87 when I filled up on Sunday
5.10 a gallon. Sign me up! That’s not bad at all😂

The Clearwater Casino is probably right around $5 now. Absolutely terrible!

I’m debating about driving my Nissan Maxima to gates to hike. If I drive around weyco then I’ll drive the f150 eco boost and sleep in the truck. Either way it’s going to be a pricy season with multi season tags. Might have to work some overtime this summer

Not a bad idea. I've been switching to our Corolla whenever I can get away with it. It gets almost 3x the mpg as my truck. Did clam digging several times for around 20$ a round trip, for example.

We never took the truck out to the beach this season, we used the Escape.  32-ish versus 12-ish.

I'm trying not to think about it :chuckle: not gonna kill me for my lower 48 trips but I'm terrified to see what my bush plane bill is gonna look like in Aug 😬 we were anticipating $5,000 round trip on the high side but its inevitably gonna be considerably higher :bash:

With the gas prices and car break ins, I don't see me doing much in the way of sporting activities. It kind of makes me feel like going nowhere if I don't have to.

I'm thinking that anything that requires a bit of fuel, I should do soon.  I don't see it peaking for a while and even longer before it starts dropping.  I just paid $5.39 at the same place that was $5.09 a week ago.
