How much do you typically pay at the gas station each visit? I don't typically let my fuel tank get below 45% empty so my costs typically range from $15-$20 a visit.

But think waaaaaayyy back to when you first started buying gas; how much did you pay then? I think I was paying somewhere in the range of .75c-79c

In my youth, I managed a gas station and fixed cars.

At that time, a gallon of regular was $0.279  and high test was $0.329 per gallon.

A fill up is generally around $65 in my Trailblazer ... do not let my tank get below 1/4.  

Average price of a gallon is $3.029 on the Kansas side and $2.949 over the state line in Missouri.  We do enjoy pretty "low" fuel prices here in the midwest by compare to other parts of the country ... still
