Around 1995.

Answer 12

um yeah... ha.. are you kidding me? just about 4-5 years ago or sooner than that gas was less than a dollar. when i got my drivers license (not sure the year.. i was 16 and im 21 now) i filled my car up and gas was .99/gallon. and when i was younger it was even cheaper..

Im in the US and i dont know what you guys are talking about but it wasnt but a few years ago... people should probably say what country they are from when they answer this and there wouldnt be so many different answers.
