Gas taxes will go steadily higher as the infrastructure continues to age. It will be interesting to watch how California gas prices will go up with their 2035 limit on traditional new car sales while pushing to EV and hybrids. With less gas tax revenue and aged electrical grids pushed to their limits taxes will have to go up unless the federal government chips in which of course spreads to us all. We may still be in the golden age of racing so enjoy it while you can.
