Most of us will spend about $2000 filling up the tank this year, and it's likely we'll overpay by a few hundred dollars. But there are three things we can do to make sure we're not getting the shaft.
Gas stations tend to raise prices at a certain time every day, and if you can get to the pump before that two-hour window you'll be able to beat the price increase. Oh, and the best day of the week to buy gas is not today.
It's one of those questions that will eat at you until you know the answer. I couldn't stand it so I clicked on the article, and this is what I found out about the fuel doors on our vehicles, and why we don't have them all on the same darn side!
If it feels like a full tank of gas is costing you more right now, it's true. The cheapest gas prices are probably gone for the year in East Texas, and prices are headed up again. But how high will they go?
Most of the time you don't really pay attention to price of gas until the little light comes on on your dashboard, but have you noticed what's going on with gas prices lately?
This is not news to us that we have the best gas station in America right here in Texas. In fact, quite a few of the gas stations that we see on Texas road trips are among the best in the country, including Buc-ee's and the Quik Trip. And you can buy just about anything there.
We're spending a whole lot of money on expensive friends and family members and sig others this time of year, and now we hear gas prices are going up to impact our budgets. But how much?
If you have a certain type of vehicle, you can drive from Tyler to Nacogdoches with the gas gauge on empty. It turns out there's more gas in the tank than you think.
Gas prices are averaging just above two bucks a gallon in East Texas right now, and that's about fifty cents cheaper than it was on the 4th of July weekend last year. Road trip on!
Even better news for drivers - gas prices are expected to dip under the two-dollar mark again this fall and they could crater at a level so low we'll be doing a double take. So how low will they get?
We've got lots of home builders, truck drivers, barbecue chefs, and CEOs in Texas, but there's one job that's overly popular compared to all the others.
Just about everyone is rejoicing with lower gas prices (except if you own a gas station). Prices have fallen considerably since the summer, when gas was around $3.39 to now $2.59 a gallon. I've even noticed a big change in the total at the pump when I go to fill up my truck and I appreciate it as does my bank account!
