OK, Brit here. I filled up yesterday at £1.28 per litre which works out as $10.15 per gallon.
I have a bad feeling this will affect us all summer with higher prices even after inventories return to normal.

I've also seen multiple stories about the localized impact that may be seen due to the lack of drivers and the portion of tankers that remain idle. I'm towing roughly 5,000 miles this summer at 7-8mpg. My gas budget may be a good $500+ more than I had originally anticipated!
I don't recall your setup. However, if you are Diesel, seriously look into the TSD RV fueling program. It is similar to Pilot/FlyingJ, but the discounts can be really good at certain places like TA/Petro. Though I too am putting an extra 500 aside as fuel goes up to cover our trips.

Absolutely @team bradfield,
People don't remember, but that is when I was racing all over the country towing big, heavy race trailers. I laugh when people post things on Fb about they will have to quit camping if gas goes over $3/gallon because they will be priced out. I always thought if $3 (or $4) gas was your breaking point, maybe buying something that gets less than 10 mpg wasn't the best choice.
