    Thank you. Some people are so dumb on here, that they think if we buy gas today and stock up, and don't spend on gas the next few days, we are harming the companies. Did you not get the simple fact that you just bought twice your consumption and just gave them that much more profit?

    As for the people saying there is dirt and other stuff, do you really know the mechanics of an underground gas pump? Do you really think they will spend millions of dollars refining crude oil to make it the quality gas we pump, without taking the dirt out? I'm sure there are some particles, but nothing as far as that would just clog up our injectors or mess up a fuel pump or something.

    thats true, if we dont stock up just dont buy for 2 days then we will hurt them! but if we all stock up an max out to go on strike then yes they dont get hurt...What I am saying will never happen .But what I am saying is out of anger an stress....But If we dont buy but what we need an stop panicing and filling barrels an drums,gas cans,etc an just go with the flow we all will be better off...Stop long trips,an riding around showing off your cars,wasting gas then we will be better off too!

    You are one example of a guy being fuccked over. I have never heard of that other than putting diesel in your tank.
