Gas Prices
Trump says gas prices are way down.

I just filled up for $4.79 today. Gas prices are indeed not way down.

Hey MAGAs, just curious, do Trump's lies make you feel better at the gas pump?

$4.199@ COSTCO. Price jumped about .50 on Monday.
Still lower than $5.01 national average in 2022 when President Biden lowered the SPR by 180 million barrels(40 yrs low) over 6 months prior to the midterms.I don't know what you drive, but my Honda Fit still gets 35 mph around town.

This was published by the Department of Transportation in Aug 22. They were telling us the truth about rising gas prices. Does it bother you that Trump gets in front of a microphone and tells you gas prices are actually going down? Do you accept the lies from your supreme leader?

Record Breaking Increases in Motor Fuel Prices in 2022
Thursday, August 18, 2022

In 2022, U.S. gas prices averaged roughly $4.19 per gallon for the year, driven by a record spike that saw national averages exceed $5 per gallon in June. Prices were heavily impacted by supply disruptions following Russia's invasion of Ukraine and high post-pandemic demand, resulting in historic highs throughout the summer months.

$4.96 by me. Paid $5 on my last fill-up. I don't think I even paid that much in 2022.

Wasn't Trump supposed to "Make America Great Again"?

Not seeing it.

As if America wasn't "great" before him.

52.4 cent per gallon flat in Michigan that replaced the 6% sales tax, correct?

Trump told you no new wars.

Now, he's telling you gas prices are going down.

He thinks you're stupid.

He just said yesterday on his way to China he's "not thinking about American financials at all."

Only that Iran doesn't have a Nuclear Bomb.

After he supposedly "obliterated" their nuclear capability last summer, and "destroyed" their Navy, Air Force, etc. in last three months.

This is your POTUS, GRBronco.

Could you imagine if any other prominent politician said he wasn't thinking about American financials at all?

Trump is lucky he has GRBronco and the rest of his cult.

RE: Gas Prices
Well then, GR - don't worry.

Trump and his cadre of Billionaires (Musk, Cook, et al) will come back from China with a "deal" that will no doubt benefit the American economy to no end.

Not to mention him "ending another war."

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/...4107&ei=57

Or not.

My car gets decent gas mileage and I don't need a new car yet. Of course, Trump is doing his best to make sure people are reliant on gas vehicles.

My neighbors, both Dartmouth grads, own an EV and love it. You bring up a good point. If more people had EVs, there would be less worrying about high gas prices.

Drive a 2009 Honda Fit. About 240000 miles on it. Gets 35 mph around town and 38 on the highway. Would buy a new one if you could get them in the US. Refuse to invest $50000-$60000 in a depreciating asset.

I was looking at Mazdas (mid20s to upper 30s in price, I'd agree 50-60K is way too much) but they discontinued the Mazda 6 or I'd maybe get another one. They're leaning heavily on SUVs which get sucky gas mileage. I only get 25-26 around home but 35-38 on the highway. At 140,000 miles I have a few years to go though.
