Most of us will spend about $2000 filling up the tank this year, and it's likely we'll overpay by a few hundred dollars. But there are three things we can do to make sure we're not getting the shaft.
This is not news to us that we have the best gas station in America right here in Texas. In fact, quite a few of the gas stations that we see on Texas road trips are among the best in the country, including Buc-ee's and the Quik Trip. And you can buy just about anything there.
We're spending a whole lot of money on expensive friends and family members and sig others this time of year, and now we hear gas prices are going up to impact our budgets. But how much?
If you have a certain type of vehicle, you can drive from Nacogdoches all the way to Tyler with the gas gauge on empty. It turns out there's more gas in the tank than you think.
We've got lots of home builders, truck drivers, barbecue chefs, and CEOs in Texas, but there's one job that's overly popular compared to all the others.
The energy industry continues to grow, and Texas may be benefiting from the oil and natural gas boom.
But as USA Today points out, all of the growth and success doesn't come without a few headaches.
