I'd prefer falling gas prices and the truth. Sadly, we're stuck well over $3 still round these parts.

And AAA data shows the avg is $3.41 so we're not really making any meaningful headway on that front. Seems like both of your hypothetical "who'd you rathers" can kick rocks while wearing flip flops

Call Shapiro and tell him to reduce our gasoline tax. Then we can make some headway
4. Pennsylvania gas tax

Gas tax total: 58.7 cents per gallon of gasoline

Drivers in Pennsylvania can expect to pay nearly 60 cents per gallon at the gas pump. At a whopping 57.6 cents per gallon, it has the third-highest gas tax in the U.S. There's no relief for diesel truck drivers, either. The tax on diesel fuel is 74.1 cents per gallon as of January 1, 2025, according to the government site of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania is big, so you might need to get gas before you cross state lines. Neighboring states like New York, New Jersey, and Maryland have fairly high gas taxes as well.

Wait - so if trumpy says something that eventually comes true, you don't have time to hear about it? It's just "fluffing" a "talking point"?

Whoops

Reports in 2025 indicate that while some individual gas stations recorded prices as low as $1.99, President Donald Trump's claims that this price point was widespread across multiple states were false. Data from AAA and GasBuddy shows that the average price per gallon in 2025 was significantly higher than that figure.

Key facts about gas prices and Trump's claims:

False claims in 2025: In April and July 2025, during his second presidency, Trump repeatedly and falsely claimed that gas had fallen to $1.99 or less in several states. Fact-checks showed no states had an average price that low, with the lowest state averages being closer to $2.70 per gallon at the time.
Btw, AAA has the current national avg at $3.071

It's quite entertaining to watch Trump and some folks try passing on our legs and telling us it's raining

Please let us know when the avg for CO dips below $2 (it's $2.934, btw)

Well get on it. There are less places under $3 today (1) vs when you started this thread (3) back in March even when leaving in Costco, WM and BJ's.

None in Allegheny County
