Are we REALLY paying more for gasoline?

Recommended Posts

show me the past 5 years price of gasoline, adjusted for inflation, and I'm pretty sure it will show $2 a gallon is damn high.
1919, 1929, 1939, 1949 shouldn't even be in there since:
A. gas wasn't as nearly a widespread product like it is now
B. there were different amount of refineries and storage tanks
C. the depression and WWII probably affected the price of gas

gee what a wonderful response :|
what does 3.5% got to do with the last 5 years' gasoline products?
if you are referring to ""Total expenditures to date are 7% with about 3.5% going to petroleum currently""
that has nothing to do with what I am asking... what are the last 5 years gas prices in 2004 dollars? its a very simple request.
