here in VA, 30 miles south of DC, I just paid 2.71 at Wawa for 89 octane. I was at 1/4 tank and it cost $60 to fill up. At least that will last me all week.

 

That guy should be strung up... what the hell is he thinking

 

we all need to do something about the prices, instead of just forking out all of our hard earned money. the question is what can we do??

 

I put in $74 on Saturday and the pump cut me off. STILL DIDN"T FILL ME UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

the pump cut off thing happened to me one time also. Is there a cut-off nowadays? If so, how do the RV guys fill up when they have 200 gallon tanks???

 

I say again my space needs to keep to something they are good at...

Thats what I meant by rationing. They only let you put some gas, then if you want more, you have to do the whole thing again. Put your card in, select the grade and pump. I can only put $35 worth at a time in some stations.

 

You may want to look at those cars a little closer. They look just like ramps to me when I drive my truck around. I would not want to hit one of them head-on at any speed. It would be a movie style crash where the car rolls the truck over then starts a tumble.

These trucks are not tanks. I have seen too many of them with the top so flat you could hardly tell where the cab was. I would not want to be in this big "Safe" truck when that happens.

Nothing that weighs 4 tons fully loaded at 45-75mph is safe. (6800lbs + fuel "200lbs"+ 1-5 Passengers "100-1000lbs" and maybe a loaded bed with stuff?)


Are they safe in a parking lot doing 10mph? Sure.

 

no. i do 5. lol. 10 isnt even safe for a rig like ours! haha. at the mall parking garages, i gotta be doing 5 or either im gonna hit someone, or im gonna turnover on the 180-degree turns.

 

I just signed up for a Citgo gas card. It gives me 8% back the first 60 days then 4% after that. Might as well get something out of them
