I worked at a BP Sousa Station in Billerica Mass, our gas was .399 for Regular, unleaded was .449 and premium was .499, and of course I ran premium. Then the first Gas shortage came up and gas went up an amazing .10 a gallon.
I do remember paying .299 for Gasohol in Colorado when I first got there, at that time it had the same octane rating as Leaded Premium and that was .619.
As for the parents that go and buy their kids what ever car they want, I have put pools in for some that the kids were driving 7 series BMW's and 1 we just finished gave their Son a 164,000 dollar Audi R8 for Graduating from College.

Hahahahaha!!
That brings back some bad memories. Long about 1984 or 5, my ex and i went to Florida for her sister's wedding. We rented such a car as this one. It was a med-dk brown color and one of the worst handling cars I have ever driven.
Luckily for us, it stayed in Florida when we went home.
