Florida Gas Prices Reach A New Record High
March 14, 2022
For the first time in 14 years, Florida’s average price for gasoline is above $4 a gallon. Florida gas prices raced higher last week, reaching a new record-high average price of $4.38 per gallon on Friday. This smashed Florida’s previous record-high of $4.08 per gallon, which was set in July 2008.
The average price for gasoline on Sunday was $4.35 per gallon in Florida, up 87 cents since Russia invaded Ukraine.
The average price per gallon Sunday night in Escambia County was $4.24, among the lowest in the state. In North Escambia, a low of $4.23 could be found Sunday night at one station on Highway 29 in cantonment
Throughout the past two weeks, the state average rose a total of 90 cents per gallon. The cost to fill an average 15-gallon tank of gas is now around $65. That’s $23 more than what drivers paid this time last year.

“how was he able to sue CNN?”
Presumably because they didn’t check the first video carefully enough. But the right to seek redress of wrongs is written into the Constitution. You don’t even have to be wronged. That’s for a jury to decide. The fact that CNN settled implies they agreed. Maybe so. Maybe no.
I notice several were sued. I haven’t seen their earlier broadcasts. I assume you have.
David for truth
Then how was he able to sue CNN
REGARDING:
“you were duped by CNN into thinking a kid from Kentucky attacked a native American Indian who fought in the war”
Actually, CNN made it clear he did NOT attack.
Others had released a video to make it seem so.
CNN showed otherwise.
Some insist on repeating lies.

REGARDING:
“lithium-ion batteries that CANNOT be recycled.”
There is nothing that can not be recycled. Some recycling is not economically viable, but it can be did.
And while lithium batteries are impressive, other types are possible, potentially even better, cheaper, more powerful.
Biden lifted sanctions on Nord Stream 2 (Russia’s pipeline) and an ally of Putin’s in May of 2021 and now looks like a fool. Anyone can research this. This was a major geopolitical prize for Putin. Now Biden looks like a fool for this because he thought he was making better relations with Russia but meanwhile they were planning an attack of Ukraine the entire time. DUPED.
Biden also killed the Keystone XL Pipeline his first day in office which would be bringing 900,000 barrels a day to the US which would have offset the oil not being purchased from the Kremlin.
Biden already announced in his presidential debate that he wants to, “transition” from oil. So the typical “do as I say, not as I do” – 40 year career do nothing politician. So he will be laughing at you while you are trying to charge your battery on your car, while he flies 1st class on a gas powered JET. Along with all the other politicians who have duped you/ force you into buying cars with lithium-ion batteries that CANNOT be recycled. Where might this lithium Ion battery go? – I’ll let you do that research.
But while you were duped by CNN into thinking a kid from Kentucky attacked a native American Indian who fought in the war, Pelosi and democrats are heavily invested in electric cars and pushing (making law) for you to drive one. But not them. They are better than you, they have jets.
Biden also announced that he would allow a limited incursion of Ukraine signaling he wouldn’t do anything if Putin invaded.
After he completely botched the Afghanistan withdrawal.
You see, it’s a laundry list of things here that aren’t remotely political. If you cry politics here you have some inner self qork to do.
I guess after every hurricane when prices skyrocketed we must blame our governor and next hurricane will most definitely be the fault of DeSantas.
And you’re spot on David Huie Green.
TG, the Keystone pipeline shutdown had no impact on prices. . It is a mechanism for delivery of oil.. It wouldn’t increase supply. The same oil that would be running through the Keystone pipeline is currently moving through other pipelines.
@CB you are correct. Garden & Pace.
Every good thing to happen since Biden took office is because of Biden. Every bad thing to happen since Biden took office is because of Biden.
Every good thing to happen while Trump was in office was because of Trump. Every bad thing to happen while Trump was in office was because of Trump.
Every good thing to happen while Obama was in office was because of Obama. Every bad thing to happen while Obama was in office was because of Obama.
Every good thing to happen while G W Bush was in office was because of Bush. Every bad thing to happen while G W Bush was in office was because of Bush.
…..continue until you get back to King George
Or maybe other factors were and are involved. All have or had flaws.
(I sure miss President Reagan, though. His flaws were better than some’s best qualities.)
David for better people
@BT
Because critical thinking and nuanced opinions are hard.
It’s a lot easier to just keep on blindly supporting your political party than to recognize that the world is a complicated place with complicated problems and complicated solutions.
@BT. I, too, would be interested in that explanation. However, it seems there’s a serious lack of understanding about factors that drive oil prices. It’s easier to wrongly place blame than to educate one’s self.
@Grady. It’s not realistic to think “the south” agrees with you, or that “the north” all feels differently. The south you are talking about doesn’t exist. At this point in our history, we need unity, not divisiveness, and not threats.
BT did shutting down Keystone help or hurt?
All time high in gas prices thanks to everyone who voted for creepy Joe Biden. Way to go guys!
This is what you get when you depend on ‘only’ oil for energy source. Oil only is not the answer.
We need all the sources we can get; electric, Oil, wind and solar etc, so that we will never be at the mercy of a foreign country again. We can’t drill our way out of this.
“Opec sets the price” for oil
.
The U.S.A. President doesn’t.!!!
Oil is a global market. Biden has little control over gas prices.
I understand your opinions are driven by your politics, but please explain how and why gas prices worldwide are driven by an American president.
Thanks Brandon
James, not sure their is a gas station at Government/Pace. Maybe at Pace and Garden
Thank-you to all of you Brandon supporters—Let’s Go Brandon! Build Back Better?
Build back Broke
Recession is coming. It happened in ‘08 and is inevitable now as well. Btw, this morning an independent station at the corner of Pace Blvd and Government in P’cola was $4.14/gal
Biden did that! Not the media propaganda scape goat Putin, but Biden.
If Biden’s destruction of America will lead to an autonomous, independent south, I support it %100.
Let’s go Brandon!
Another great job by sleepy Joe. Almost two more years of pain left. Let’s go Brandon.
Gas prices were already on the rise before the war started. Recessions had already begun and knowing it was during another Democratic presidential term is no coincidence. How many years in congress and he achieved nothing and has achieved nothing so far except not being able to handle any crisis.
