Cheap Gas But nowhere to go
Gas is the cheapest it has been in years, yet we cant drive anywhere because we are either under a "Stay inside", or a "shelter in place" order. The roads are empty, gas is cheap, Spring is here, but your destination is closed. I'm all for getting this virus under control, and the best way to do it is to stay home, so I guess I'll have to wait for my next top down drive. Time to start mapping out that June or July trip. What do you think?

In the same situation here. I did take a drive yesterday for about 30km just to get the car stretched out after it being idle for 3 weeks. With the CA$ versus US$ being in the dumpers we will probably do a road trip down to the east coast this year. Not sure if this plague lock-down will be lifted by then as they have actually barred unnecessary travel between provinces this week.

Same problem in sunny TX. The optimistic forecasts say the pandemic situation will be demolished mid/end of Summer. That sucks of course, no one wants to stay home during the Summer. The gas is so cheap I want to buy and fill a big storage tank
