Quote from: "Charlie Chops 1940"One of my pals and I were lamenting a while back that there ought to be a gas card you could buy that would lock in, say, a thousand gallons of gas at whatever the price is that day...sort of a consumers futures market.

I took a look but it appears there isn't any new information on the site since July and no information at all as to where might find a participating station in any areas. They are so busy they can't update their site or it's just so much space junk in a decaying orbit. Once something gets on the web it never goes away. So, how's it work for you Jim?

Today is the lowest it has been for a long while at 1.14 L which is roughly $4.56 /g.
No doubt we are being screwed over by the oil companies because that doesn't equate to anything near what the difference was a few months back. :evil:
I maybe from down under but I know which way is up.
Oh hell there goes another head rush.

I could do a Google earth map to show how far away those stations are from me.

Quote from: "Crosley"I add Sta-bil to the gasoline in the truck now, since I seldom drive it , mayb on the weekends only

does sta-bil actually work? for how long?

i drive the 48 very little in the summer do to the heat.

will sta-bil prevent the gas going bad over 4-5 months?

thanks jim

hi Jim,

the Sta-bil container says  it will keep gasoline fresh for up to 12 months.

Some times the fuel in my lawn tractor is not replaced for 4-5 months in the winter. I use the tractor but not enough to run the tank down  for  a  fresh refill.

Heh, heh, I stopped an filled up my 61 Chrysler today at 3/4 tank reading.

Took 6 gal premium at 1.95.

Wanted to hurry up and get some of that cheap gas, last time I put gas in the car it was 3.50.

Being retired, I don't drive much.
