I remember gas price wars in the early 70's. Stations were competing with prices fluctuating in the mid $.30's. Then.... OPEC oil embargo in 1973 and prices shot up to the unreal mid $.50's. Tough times....

I remember 37/38¢ around 1970.

It stayed there through the 50's, 60's and into the 70's

My roughneck uncle back then worked in the oil fields out in the sticks. Missing parts of two fingers but brought home the bacon for the family. Tough ole' dude I admire that.

@RedBaron I forgot about the 29 cent gas when there was a "gas war" between competing gas stations.

89 cents. It was probably cheaper than that and I just didn't pay attention until I started driving.

@4meAndyou

That’s when oil had a negative value because not enough was used during Covid and it was stuck on ships.

Remember that was when AOC, the brilliant economics scholar, said it was the perfect time to start never using it again. Because it was so cheap.
