I wish I Needed more then a 8th Tank Fill.
25 Miles West to Pottsville & 25 Miles back isn't worth it .
Last time I was out by Sheets they had Gas for $2.98
But I Chose 20% Ethanol gas for $3.50
I Didn't see where the $2.98 pump was, I think it was separate
and Probably 40 % Ethanol :dontknow:
The Sheet out there is New & has several Brands Including No Ethanol

I'm still laughing about when gas went up to 35 cents a gallon in the 70's and rumors it would someday go to a dollar a gallon, and some guys said when it did that, they would quit buyin it, by god. I told them yeah, you bet, when it goes to $5 a gallon y'all will wait in line to buy it. They pretty much told me I was crazy but I did know what I was talkin about.

@RGINN when the British were blockaded by the Axis during WWII and their "petrol" was rationed, common people built these devices that turned wood into gas to power their cars instead of gasoline. They called them woodmobiles, and through the war they became common place with the devices being built directly into the trunk of the cars, so the cars were simply fueld by logs. That's what I would imagine we would do in this country if gassoline ever became too expensive, but these days nobody seems to be doing it.
