When I started driving (1965) gas was $.29 a gallon and it had been that price for awhile and stayed there until 1970. Filled my Volkswagen Beetle for $3.00 and it lasted for a couple of weeks.
MC,
I posted a couple times that when I was young and it so happened that a friend who was lucky enough to have a license AND a car, that's when a group of us would scrounge up whatever change we had (10, 25 cents) to pay for gas to cruise around. 1 or 2 dollars went a long way.

I'm sure we all looked for change under the seats and floor mats
