Imagine how the freeways used to sound like in 1972
At .81 a gallon, there would be a line 5 times that length now! I remember my older sister's boyfriend (of about 15) would ask people in their cars if they wanted him to babysit the car while they took a rest in the nearby coffee shop across the street, he would have to push it to keep up with the line as slow as it was and the customer would see the car getting close and come out and taker over. I think he asked 3 bucks..and made about $18 a day...
