KiloTango1200 Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Av Gas is down to $3.51 per gallon. It hasn't been this cheap since the early '80s. Been an almost constant line at the self serve pump. We are the cheapest in the DFW area and people are coming from all across North Texas to take advantage of the price. 2 Quote Link to comment
