PieceByPiece_KC Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) No major impact to me and have yet update my budget for increasing gas price. I drive a hybrid that gets 50 mpg and I don't drive that much. I haven't filled up since the end of March.

jordanjm Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Honestly I didn’t even notice it went up that much, I don’t ever look at the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELT Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Honestly, a good amount. I try to get everything done in the morning so I don't burn more gas by blasting my A/C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selegend Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) Gas price doesnt impact only the ones that drives a car guys lmao it holds A LOT of influence on overall inflation… And inflation is absurd almost everywhere in the world, very high. Im from Brazil and we’re ****** up. Thankfully i still got money to do the things i need or the ones i want a lot, my salary is pretty decent. but this needs to stop!!!!

Apolonio Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I’m paying between $40 - $60 a week on a fill up and it lasts a week if I don’t go anywhere other than work. I can afford it most of the time so it’s not such a big deal to me. An annoying inconvenience yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sxhunluv Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It's $6 now. Thankfully we have good public transportation so I don't have to rely much on driving now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATRL Moderator khalyan Posted May 21, 2022 ATRL Moderator Share Posted May 21, 2022 I filled up this week for $3.99, and while that is obviously more than the mid $2s I’m used to here, it’s not enough to really change my habits in any way.

Alldeezy Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It was really bad few months ago..I have to go get petrol in little bits just to fill my car and I been using the cheaper fuel too and bubbles doesn't like that very much (yes bubbles is my beetles name) But my bf hasn't driven at all he even got a push bike xD so guess it was more horrible for him lmao.

Oktober Knight Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It definitely canceled our summer plans. We were supposed to take our RV here and there in the Midwest but since it costs $1000 to fill up one tank, that ain't happening now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatsmydemi Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I thought it was gonna be worse but since my car doesn't consume that much it didn't have a significant impact. I used to pay €30-€40 every two/three weeks and I still do even with the current prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingJay Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I have a big ass SUV (GMC Yukon Denali) with a 6.0L V8. Gas is currently $4.50 rn. It drives me crazy how I can't even get to the corner of my street with $10 now. It's terrible! I wish I had a smaller car atm. But, unfortunately I don't get a choice.

Kamil24 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I've had to work from home since March 2020 so honestly saved so much on gas, and still don't need to fill up that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyshimmery Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 gas is $4.15/gal near me, when it used to be $2.50/gal on average. Gas tends to go up every summer, but this one is crazy. If I put $25 into my tank, I only get a 1/4 tank worth of gas.... meaning it'll be $100 to fill up. When it used to be $40 or $50 to fill up. I'm fortunate to be working from home right now, but my job makes us pay for parking as well since I work in a downtown office where parking is extremely competitive. I really wish I had gotten a hybrid (or electric) vehicle last year when I was on the market for a new car. I, instead, opted for a conventional gas large SUV that I could have done without. Overall, I'm not hurting for money due to gas prices... but it is scary to see the price keep rising. I just hope that we don't suffer a huge catastrophe.
