They had to modify the pumps to allow for another digit. It was like I came back into another world!

I remember it in the 1973 Oil Embargo by the Arab oil guru's. :lol:

We had just purchased a new Chevelle, with a 454 cu in engine. (I still have it).

I remember how crazy a dollar a gallon sounded. I am still subconsciously stuck on $2 a gallon.

I remember a while back (maybe ten years ago) they were building a new gas station. They were trying out the new electronic display out by the road and put $3.33 a gallon on the sign. It nearly caused a panic!

I like the utility bed with the camper. That must be a C30?
