Is the price of gas hindering your out-of-state or in-state hunt plans?

[Irishman]

Average gas price today in Montana $4.20, exactly a year ago $3.31. I'm not sure that difference is going to put too many people off, unfortunately.

Average gas price here in Central Florida right now is about $3.40-3.50

 

[Cornbread]

What has the price of gas fallen to in Montana? It's about $3.36 here near the beach in Central Florida.

$4.25ish

Heck no, CNN says I just got a hundred dollar raise.

This is exactly where I’m at. Even at a hypothetical $5 a gallon (we are currently under $4), gas is still about the cheapest thing about my elk hunts and I’m driving 2500 miles per trip.

$3.39 when I filled the truck a couple days ago.

I'm done fewer scouting trips, but they haven't really helped in the past.

Come on man, has the cost of anything ever kept these maniacs away.

$4.19 here for gas.

I remember $.79 cents a gallon for leaded gasoline back in the 70s, as a youngster, and we thought that was expensive.

Cold Coca-colas in returnable glass bottles from the red soda machines were a nickel ($.05).

Does anyone own a time machine on this forum?

I deliver fuel part time, and prices went up $0.10 today, and supposedly they're suppose to go back up to what it was this summer. $4.19 unleaded and $4.84 for diesel today.

When the tag is drawn my mind is set that a cost is included so my plans don't change I might have to work a little extra to compensate but the adventure is started

Thanks. Definitely much higher than here in Central Florida. We haven't seen the worst of this energy crisis. I think Oct/November will be real bad for Natural gas. If and when China goes back to work, oil will surge to maybe $180 a barrel. That could mean maybe $7-9 for gasoline. How ya like them apples?

 

[SaskHunter]

Yes and I highly encourage anyone to stay home this fall!

I don't have any out of state hunts this year, but I'm planning on racking up the miles in state. I figure Biden will forgive my gas expenses during the next election cycle so I'm gonna go ahead and rack up the credit card debt...

 

[D4570]

Maybe he will dismiss the expenses of catastrophic illness expenses, WAY more than student loans...
The gas card debt will be an issue this year for me too.

 

[mplane72]

I said F driving. I'm going to Alaska. Leave in 21 days.

Diesel went up 0.20 today, $4.79 last night and $4.99 now
