The fork in the road between a gas dryer and an electric one back in 2017

I had to choose between a $650 gas dryer and a $450 electric model when my old one died in my house near Portland. Picked the gas one because the hookup was already there and my buddy said it would save me money over the long run. It still runs great 6 years later, but was that extra $200 really worth it, or did I just get lucky with the gas prices holding steady? Any of you run into a similar choice and regret it?

Honestly, you gotta use that Fuel Rewards app or check GasBuddy before you head out. I check like three stations before I even leave the house now or I end up paying 20 cents more for no reason.
