$1.49 today

Sad because I paid 2.08 today only 50 miles away from there on the other end of the Twin Cities

I’ll do my part to help the oil companies. My blown, stroked 92 Chevy gets about 4 mpg. Once our (fearless) leaders allow us to drive across the land of the (free). Of course I’ll have to wait for my government check. After the forced government shut down May cause a vibrant 50 year old business to cut back or close. And they call this living.

$1.34 last night at Costco. Between low gas prices and Peppers stellar efficiency it's costing my about 6 cents a mile. This is like getting a raise!

Regular is about $1.78 in Casper, which is about $2.23 for premium. After Dad's uber gas discount that makes it about $1.18 for premium. 

 

A couple weeks ago I got premium for 87 cents a gallon. 

 

Like other members have said though, this is not fairing well for the local economy. One friend at work has a husband out of work due to the downturn, and my best friend at work is worried hers will be before long. The hospital has slowed way down too so they can't really pick up extra shifts to make up for it.

I read reports over the weekend there’re some hospitals that are struggling financially. The reason may surprise some. They put off elective procedures for space for the bug. And the bug isn’t showing up. Hospitals are like most other business, two weeks of no business could ruin them. I imagine they’ll get a check too.

Yup, no elective surgeries out here. They have multiple areas reserved for the bug, and so far one case in the ICU. It's good to be prepared, but we're going to screw a LOT more people with shutting everything down.

      Gas Prices

      Big oil is raking in billions from the Iran war. Can it avoid Trump’s fury?   Remember I said Big Oil is 'Vertically Integrated"?   Even as they no longer own the majority of the "Pump" they still own the "Well". Crude price upward pressure does not translate into that same pressure on production. Pumping cost remain unaffected and the gap is pure profit. Even after subtraction of a minor, comparatively, lower amount from supposed, but not always, realized refining volume. Consumers hate war, Big Oil, not so much.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By KARNUT · Posted

      We live in a world where the average person expects more. People say wages and our needs are farther apart. My first new home had 3 bedrooms and one bedroom. My first car and truck had what would be considered a stripped or work vehicle. In my neighborhood back then there were more homes like that and cars too. Middle managers and second home buyers worked their way up to the fancy houses and cars. Car loans were 3 years. GM had different models of cars for different income levels. The cars were pretty much the same size if you wanted a big vehicle. The nameplate designated the opulence. Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac.  To be fair some of the cost is government mandated. We can’t blame them for giving us what people will pay for. Careful advertising steering people towards more profitable SUVs and trucks. As I learned recently a minivan is a cheaper more efficient form of transportation. Certainly easier to live with. Somebody realized the profit margin wasn’t as big and gave it a soccer mom label. So it lost its coolness. They’re making it the masses are buying it. You hit your hand with a hammer you can’t blame the hammer.

      Electrical /Immobilizer Data- Battery Voltage (V) Test malfunction

      By Aussie2500HD · Posted

      Hi All, I’m In need of advice regarding a scan result on my 2023 Silverado HD.  The Sensor Supply voltage relay states ON But…. the following 3 tests show Malfunction. Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit HIGH voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit LOW voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit OPEN test status - Malfunction. No DTC codes are stored. No DIC Lights. Remote Key Fob has been giving a few issues, namely Vehicle will not respond to an Open/Lock command from the key fob. New batteries installed to FOB made no difference, plus on one occasion recently the vehicle unlocked using the Fob, the vehicle started normally via the push button, then a random warning came up on the DIC stating the Remote Key was not found, all this while the key was located next to the central cup holders. Does anyone have any input or advice regarding this scenario? TIA

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need
