What? They were worried about gas mileage at ten cents a gallon?

Re: Got a laugh today
If there were taxes on the "dime a gallon" gas in 1926, they were minimal. Most of the taxes on today's petrol are used for road repair, something that was only beginning a century ago. If you subtract taxes from today's petrol prices, you have a reasonable example of two-part inflation, part driven by technology, part by greed & incompetence. How long did the motorist work for that dime?
