The post says "It's 180 bucks" about the speaker's own SUV, but the extracted claim generalizes this to the cost to fill "an SUV", which departs from the passage, so it is unverifiable as extracted.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What was said
… Well, who is we? White man, my dad doesn't work at Exxon. I don't own Chevron stock. I'm trying to figure out a way to pay my rent, and every day, or once a week, I get this punch in the gut when I go buy, when I go fill up my SUV.

Contradicts. At the $4.27 national average on 2026-10-27, a full-size SUV fill costs about $77 and a compact SUV about $68; $180 would require roughly 42 gallons, well beyond typical SUV tanks.[1][3][4]
Contradicts. Consumer Reports found that even the largest SUVs and trucks with 21 to 36 gallon tanks cost just over $100 to fill when gas was near $4, and the JEC analysis put the top-selling SUV at about $58 in April.[2][5]
Context. The post's "180 bucks" refers to the speaker's own personal SUV, which the sources do not identify, so the extraction's general "an SUV" wording is not what the post said.
