Gas went over a dollar a gallon, and in pre-inflation 1977, the inflation calculator says that that's the same as 4.53 today. So 4.53 a gallon and long lines to buy it and in some places, we had 5 gallon limits. I hope we're not headed there. Like the "gas wars" of 1973, when you were only allowed x-amount gallons of gas. People simply went to the next gas station, which produced long lines waiting to get to the pumps. Stations often ran out of gas before your turn. Ironically, in the early 1960s, there were gas price wars. Gas was down to 18 cents/gallon in my town in some stations. Now there's an unspoken law that all gas stations must offer the exact same price per gallon at the pump. What goes around, comes around.

It went by the last number on your license plate and you could only get gas every other day. People would run out of gas in line so it wasn't unusual to see people pushing cars. Gas would be stolen or siphoned out so you needed a lock on you gas cap. My grandfather kept an extra can in the garage but would siphon from one car to another if necessary. Here just west of DFW, you can find gas at $2.89 if you go to Murphy, Raceway, or the supermarkets. The major names are a little over $3.00. |
