Default Re: $4.00 +++ per gallon

Went to get gas this morning and was going to stop at the local Speedway. I see the regular, 87 octane unleaded gas price at $3.29 a gallon. The place was packed so I figure forget it. I drive a half mile down the road and stop at Sunoco who show regular, 87 octane at $2.99 a gallon. Needless to say I pulled in and filled up at the Sunoco.

I'm sorry, as far as I am concerned Speedway is a DAMN JOKE!! Their gas prices are no bargain. I think that goes for that Sheetz also.. Sometimes you can get a good gas price at Sheetz but you have to watch... And that Giant Eagle "Get Go" gas is total garbage!! I call it "Get Nowhere." My Father used to run that garbage in his Dodge Ram truck with a 318. I borrowed his truck to tow my car in an enclosed car trailer last summer. That thing was knocking and pinging so bad that the engine knock sensor activiated which triggered the check engine light.. The truck was sluggish also while pulling!! REAL JUNK!!! I didn't originally know that was what he was running until I later called and asked him.. He has since switched gas..

I have to agree with the other comment posted above, as much as I supported President Bush, the gas prices are rediculous and there is definately a common link there between the two!!

THATS MY .02 cents!! OK, I will jump off my soapbox now!!
