\
la the fondly-remembered time of the nickel
trolley and the 25^ T-bone, gasoline for dad’s
1925 model cost about 18ff a gallon (eluding
taxes). Sounds like a bargain—yet it really
cost more than today’s gasoline. The reason is
clear when you keep this fact in mind: You
fill your car’s tank with gasoline, but what
you’re actually buying is mileage. Naturally,
you’d rather pay $1 a gallon for gas that gave
you 100 miles a gallon than buy 10ff gas that
delivered only 5 miles to the gallon. And that’s
why today’s gasoline costs less than motor
fuel of 1925 ... it gives you more miles to
the dollar. Research by companies such as
Standard Oil Company of California has im
proved gasoline spectacularly over the years.
This better motor fuel made more efficient
auto engines possible, and together they give
you up to 50% better mileage than motorists
got in the ’20’s. On top of that, competition
between oil companies has helped to hold down
gasoline prices. Since 1925, they’ve risen only
20% (excluding taxes) while food has gone up
70%, clothing 63%, and the cost of living 53%.
Compared to practically anything else yon
buy, gasoline is a bargain. Your money goes
further when it goes for today’s finer gasoline f
that delivers more miles to the dollar. t
