Not earth shattering but yup it will cost more to fill my boat. So relax and see what happens in the Senate and if it makes it past them what the Governor does.
Boating, snowmobiling etc are recreational so impacts are really not an issue.
What about all of your products that are delivered? The price of pretty much everything you buy will go up as a result of this and it is already being talked about.
But on the other hand the state of our roads is already costing us more money. Front end alignments and tires are not cheap and are happening more frequently as a result of the road conditions.
