I remember when gas was considered cheap if it was 29 cents a gallon. Average was about 31.9 cents. I don't think people really started thinking of gas as being expensive until it was pushing close to a dollar. Once we got into the 3 figures it got expensive. I do remember when I got married, gas was around 35-40 cents a gallon. ON our honeymoon we drove to this very out of the way place and the only gas station around for miles sold it for 51 cents!!!! We couldn't wait to tell everybody the nerve of those people!!! How could they charge so much. Who did they think they were!!!
