Now be nice just because they had wooden spokes with steel for treads or Flintstone wheels.
I recall back in the early 70's when gas wars were going on, paid $0.16 a gallon in Quincy Calf. Too bad the bike only held 5 1/2 gallons.
Ben; check your PM in a few minutes.
Carl...

16 cents in the 1970's for gas in an out of the way logging town miles from anything?
Scheiss, I never bought gas that cheap, and I've had my license since 1959. The going rate in WLA was 25.9 back then.
Me thinks you northerners are drinking waaay too much Anchor Steam Beer, and all the rust in that rot gut has clogged your brains.
16 cents? uh huh...

Hey! Home come you two (Carl and Bill) don't have a gallery?
Bet you guys had/have some nice rides.
Now back to topic:
I once did that Cheech and Chong thing where I was pulled over and the officer asked me for my license.
I told him isn't it back on the rear of my truck.
He didn't think that was funny.
I did.

Bigun72,
Congrats on the license. Say goodbye to cash. Put a $20 tucked away in your wallet and forget about it. (Emergency fund!)
Got my license in 1971. Gas around here was 22.9˘ at the time.
I've seen gas for 1.9˘, (yes. . . a Penny dot nine cents!) in Greeneville, TN, in January of 1972.
We were on the way back to Maryland, from my grand-mother's funeral. Dad had just filled up at an Esso station in town, where he used to do business, when we lived there. Gas at that station was 14.9˘.
As we went through town, Dad noticed that gas prices were getting lower, and lower, and lower.
The last gas station in town was a Sinclair. (Do you older guys remember the dinosaur!?!?!? It was called 'Dino' wasn't it???)
Anyway. . . . Dad says (quite loudly), "Dad burn it. Just my luck. I gas up, then drive right through a dad-burned gas war!!!"
Dad was driving a 1967 Pontiac Catalina (2+2), with (I think) a 26 gallon gas tank. (At 14.9˘ per gallon, if he had put 20 gallons of gas in the car, that would've been $2.98 for gas!)
