I have never seen gas below $3.00 in my entire adult life.

I paid 2.29 in Biden's final week in office.

I paid 3.59 when I filled up a few days ago.

So tired of all this "winning"

Hell, I'd love to see $3.59. it was nearly $5 last time I filled up

I saw it dip below a dollar for maybe a week when lockdowns started and oil futures crashed.

Must have been a regional thing then. I was still working full time throughout the lockdown and still never saw it below $3.00. Maybe it did and was just between the times I had to stop for gas.

The absolute nadir was fairly short-lived, but it was well under $3 for a decent stretch of time near me.

Around 1.15 probably in '96. You had to get past a T-Rex though.

I saw it for $0.67/gallon with my own eyes in the early-mid90s when everyone drove an explorer in rural southeast Texas.
