Between April's gas prices and May's the price of gas has gone up a lot. In April I drove 1156.3 miles and spent $152.56 on 43.58 gallons, in May I drove 660.1 miles and spent 106.35 on 27.78 gallons. Part of that April driving is a road trip with good gas mileage and May was only 3 fill-ups, all local, city driving, just commuting to work.
I have a spreadsheet of my gas going back to February of '07. In April on $1 I could drive 7.57 miles and in May on $1 I could drive 6.21 miles. So if I got April's distance per dollar in May, my gas bill would have been $87.14, or 22% less.
mmmm... smell that inflation. IN A MONTH.
