Cheap gas!!

[Jeffrey S.]

Hello all- I just got back from a great customer appreciation event run by Hagerty Insurance. At the Mobil station on Woodward in Birmingham, you could buy up to 10 gallons of premium gas for whatever the price of gas was during the year of your car. So I paid 34 cents a gallon for 7 gallons of 93 octane. Total cost = $2.38! The Hagerty people were all dressed like the gas station attendants of the pre-self serve days (attached photo), offered to pump the gas and check the oil, and washed the windows. Fun event!

That is a great event and a touch of class by Hagerty. I would like to see some of our politicians here in Mass pumping gas and explaining all the new taxes they have imposed!!!!

Those were the days. I grew up on Grosse Ile. I remember when the '76 station at the corner of Parkway and Meridian offered regular at 25 cents per gallon with a fill-up of 8 gallons or more. ...and yes, they still checked under the hood and wiped the windows.

That's probably cheaper then the Arabs pay in the Middle East!
