OT: Oil companies



Heh, a mobil station here fux0rd my 16v and my Sportruck at the same
time. Fouled up both fuel pumps.


Needless to say, I was not pleased, especially since the truck was
acting like an electrical problem. At least the car's fp died
straight-off; right in the bank drive-through. :|


For the record though:
Truckstops around here typically have cheaper diesel than service
stations....thus, I tank-er-up with the big rigs.

I'm with Bubb on this. Partialy because he scares me just a little bit,
and mostly because it is very easy to boycott an oil company that has no
stations in your home town! ;-)

Me, I prefer Exxon/Mobil because using SpeedPass to pay is sooooo easy!
Unfortunately almost all Exxon and Mobil stations near me are now
Russian owned Lukoil stations without SpeedPass. 

I'm with the 'gas is gas' folks, ijve never had a bad or even mediorce
tank of gass in any of my VWs or my RIP Benz. However, I used to have
problems (imaginary/presumed? I dunno) with Sunoco gas on Carb'ed cars.
Way back in the day.

My understanding is that gas is gas...SO the Hess station next to work
has the best deal and that is where you see me......

  I tend to switch stations, BP Shell, Mobil, every now and then just to
see if my car performs better.

Our MV can run on e85 which nobody around here carries, but I just
wonder how much corn it would take to fill a 18 gal tank.
