[displacedtexan]

Will be more gas powered trucks available for a while now.

The shortage we’ve been in aint from covid. Mfr slowed down building to meet govt stuff.

Yes very cute using inflationary CPI numbers to adjust the graph and a 2 data point spike during covid none the less. Data manipulation galore and TDS on full display here. not how it works. Like i said in my first post. The TDS people like you are really struggling with factual information.

Here you go, not adjusted for inflation.

COVID happened. Deal with it.

Supply and demand, and a business. Oil companies don't produce oil if it's not profitable.

Ok now what do we notice about the graph? It should not be hard see if you are truly being objective.

The last administration also pumped more oil than any other.

I do badly wanted to buy into that drop. Oil was at like -$6/barrel. Amazing. My financial guy gave some excuses and i kept my $ in pocket. Woulda been quardrupled or more buy now.

Fired him, kick myself for listening.

Sold it to China.

Sold it to China.

Sold it to lots of places.

Free market!

Ok. Yes exporting oil will do that. Plus when you choke off supply in the first year or 2 and price goes to like 7$ a gallon people get nervous their constituents will be mad. But there is not some big debate to be had. The party platform on your side is complete transition away from fossil fuels by 2050. If people want to drive a combustion engine vehicle, there is an obvious issue with that now isnt there.

Got a source for your $7 gallons? I definitely don't remember that.

Strange hill to die on man. I think most people remember the spikes in gas prices that show up pretty clear on the graph above.

It's almost like oil goes up and down regardless of what clown is "in charge"...

Yes, but as we see from the empirical data, it goes up more and down less sometimes. That is why we have things like averages which are at the bottom of the graph you linked. They confirm unequivocally that prices were higher before trump and then again after trumps first term.

No they don't.

But if you love him, great.

Why? Let's hear all the ways that how I spend my money is crazy to you.

I grew up being told to dump vehicles at 75k, I’m tempted to upgrade my 2021 69k with either a 2025 or 2026 the end of this year, I also will only buy new.

 

[tdhanses]

Sorry. 4.

I believe it's Cat. Brand new, no DEF, well over the 75hp.

Is 75hp when def comes into play? I know over 25hp and the dpf comes into play.
