Yeah....summer is here....I know this because the weather is great...baseball games are being played...and gas prices are going up...just like they do every summer. Did you know that while gas prices go up in the summer...you and I (and the rest of America) are losing almost $124 BILLION a YEAR because we sit in traffic waiting for lights to change, congestion to clear, construction delays, etc? It's true, and it figures out to almost $1700 a year per household. How many bags of groceries, school clothes, vacations, etc. does that work out to for us? YIKES!

Wallet Hub did a study of the best and worst cities to drive in. Boise doesn't top this list as the best, but we're far from the worst (obviously they didn't drive Eagle Rd in rush hour, nor have they tried to get to the Towne Square Mall during the holidays). Check it out.
