Two weeks ago I purchased gas in Casper, Wyoming. I paid $3.39/gal for regular gas … everywhere in town.
Last week along the way to Torrey, I found gas for $4.39 along the way. And now, we are paying what in the Salt Lake City area? $4.51/gal.
Don’t talk to me about how much a POTUS controls the gas price. This is price gouging by all the suppliers here in Utah. To find gas much, much cheaper outside of Salt Lake City is a slap in the face to all of us by Big Oil … and Small Oil.
