I don't think the fuel prices have limited an of our driving as we have trips and travel already planned out.  Just noticing it on the back end on the amount of money going out and not into savings.  I filled up my diesel truck last night and it was $6.28 a gallon.  Folks will definately see a lot more cash going out for everything.  I would look at other vehicle options, but good luck trying to find one and if you do the markup is mind boggling.  Take a $10k - $25k over MSRP bath on a new one or keep plugging away with what I have.   :dunno:

Yes, I can buy a lot of fuel for the price of a new vehicle that gets better mileage. Would take  many years to make the  new vehicle worth the price.

Ok, here's a question. I read somewhere that Keystone XL is no longer an option because it's been diverted to British Columbia so the oil can be sold to China. When biden shut it down, did he know plan "B" was to sell the oil to China? If so it's a nice payback for all the grift that Hunter accumulated from his chinese buddies.

Any oil that would have gone through it either didn't get pumped because it was too expensive or was already going somewhere else.  They will sell it to the highest bidder whether that's China or Anacortes.  It also likely changes frequently due to refining needs, production around the globe, transport costs, etc.

I would guess China is buying all they can from Russia, I think it's going for about $90 a barrel since much of the world won't touch it.  That's a huge financial gain for them for sure.  It's not just oil, but gas and whatever else Russia exports.

I don’t know what my limit is, per se, but it’s getting tough. I live on disability, so things are really tough for me these days. I love to hunt, so I’ll find a way if there at all is one. I’ll be doing a fewer number of trips but stay longer when I’m there. Fortunately I have to drive about 1/4 as far vs when I lived in Washington. And I suspect I’ll be using the car a lot more than the pickup, and I’m not even registering the trailer this year.

Oh man when I started this thread the joke was about limit since limit in waterfowl is a huge term. But looks like I’m limited out on fuel price after all not to mention dried out as well. Good luck, no stamps our license for me.

Up .45 cents in the last few days well over $5. It's starting to hurt on a fixed income basis.

$4.79-4.89 reg unleaded around Ephrata/Coulee City.Chevron at Fort Spokane is 4.79.  Still a bad jab but better than the wet side

Here we go again,  about $1.20 above national average 🫣. Remember the days at times of 99 pennies a gallon to put in perspective when filling up the tank for scouting and hunting. 5.09 a gal is way over my limit and no wonder cc debt is over 1 trillion here in the states.

As long as the Seattle times keeps running climate change fear porn articles, nothing changes because the folks who live in the the most populace counties eat this crap up and thus vote for democrats. They feel their need for doing something good in their eyes.

Yes, my limit has been reached. You've done what you set out to JAY....Im driving less
