    So...it has finally reached the point with gas that i cant let my truck get too far below 1/2 a tank because you cant put more than $75 in at one time.

    now if they are going to kick our buttcheeks inside out with the prices...they gotta remove that cause its REALLY annoying to have to get gas...then get gas again to fill up my truck lol

    $96.60 is my fill-up record so far.

    I've found a local station that doesn't have the limit thing.

    i understand the limit part...... we have been seeing a rash of gas station robberies involving people pulling up in large vehicles with trailers hauling big tanks, and the people are somehow turning on the pumps and filling huge containers with gas!!!!! ohers are pulling over the ground covers for the underground tanks and pumping out gas into large tanks..... crazy shit for sure going on!!!

    Interesting that in today's papers a Senate hearing with Oil Execs revealed that one made 12.5 million last year excluding the benefits and perks while several of the others, "Couldn't recall" what they made last year. Some crazy analyst said on CNN that due to shortages we could see 12-15 dollars a gallon by this time next year. Another CNN analyst said that he didn't know what he was talking about.

    Limit?? What limit, there's a limit?!?! How friggin stupid is that?!?! I've never heard of that, is that for all states or what, never had a problem round here. Why in the world would they have a limit, and how can they?!?! THIS IS AMERICA!!! Is it a limit on price or quantity?? At 4.25/gal and rising by the second and with all the huge trucks/suvs out there that's got to be the STUPIDEST thing I've ever heard. I don't understand this ...

    Dude, that can't be out here cause my dad has a motorhome and he's never said anything bout any kind of limit. He also had a full size Ford conversion van for years with 2 tanks and never said anything bout a limit. Hmmmm, very interesting, especially when you start thinking bout all the motorhomes out there traveling the country ...
