Vermont used to have very low gas taxes. In 1999, we would pass gas stations selling gas for $0.899.

When I was in San Diego, in Fall 2003 or Spring 2004 the gas spiked to around $2.35 at the Cheapo Arco stations. Moving to Texas in 2004, the gas was around $1.40. At $1.40 today , even only counting inflation to 2%, this is about 21-22% cheaper!
