West Texas gas prices

I don't know about other parts of the country but you west Texas folks that makes that pilgrimage every year or more may find out that the trip might cost you DOUBLE than the years before. My friend just left Alpine and told me gas prices was at over $3.00 per and at $3.29 south ( Big Bend region ). And lodging was up at a 20 % increase. WOW ! Will you still go ? Probably time for the buddy system of going.........LOL !

Wow, that's insane. Course people won't make these gas prices any more than a "glitch" on their complaint column. Seems they complain for like a day, then go on. That's why it keeps going up higher and higher, then it goes down a tad, but is still higher than it should be. Then next round it continues. The oil industry knows that's how they can continue to make record profits. Here in my city it's about $2.77. We haven't yet hit the spring rising cost yet.
Okay enough rant. I'll still hit my "local" areas, primarily the sierras, and southern CA deserts. A real road trip may be out of the question.

They range about $3 - $3.50 here. But at the Indian Reservation, they are about $2.50-2.75.

Gas prices around Tallahassee, FL have been around $3.05 for premium grade. I can see where the days of long road cruising trips all night long might get kind of expensive to do. When it costs $50 to fill up your gas tank, it becomes a major concern about whether that sort of activity is worth what it costs.
