It's a good time to own a car. The price of gas just keeps on dropping.
In fact, just yesterday the price of oilfell to below $28 a barrel, which is cheaper than the actual barrel itself. In some parts of the country, gas has fallen to less than a dollar a gallon even, including one gas station in Michigan with gas as low as $0.47 cents a gallon.
This is bad news for oil and gas companies, but good for you. So take advantage of the cheap fuel now and drive out to some of these cool events going on in Dallas.
