Time to start draining the hoses into your tank, i'd say.

Check out the Cannonball scoots for auxiliary gas tanks. At least then you could just fill up once a month!

A fellow who works for me just took his lunch break and saw a station with some gas. He jumped in line and is filling his gas can with a couple of gallons for me. Woo Hoo! Can you say raise

That's crazy - we had the same situation in Nashville Sept. 19-21 but have pretty much returned to normal. The people rush in that may not need to fill up and the stations that have it get drained fairly quickly. Not a fun experience with these cities largely dependent on the Colonial Pipeline, apparently for much of the supply.
I will lways try to have a fairly full 2& 1/2 gal. can at home for the Bud.

Due to the hurricanes refinement and distribution to the SE got messed up. Most states except for Georgia requested release of emergency supplies right away and were granted them. Sitll had shortages and till things could get caught up. Georgia's govenor waited a week so they are feeling what has been going on in other states and it will probably be a week or two before things level out.bunny wrote:I don't *get* it. Why is it Atlanta is having difficulty getting tankers through? SUpply chain mismanagement anyone?

I passed 4 or 5 stations in Atlanta with gas- only regular but plenty of gas no lines in Midtown and on downtown connector. Love commuting only a half a mile on the scootersonlyagibson wrote:Not a drop. I am on Empty. This sucks.

Wow, really? Up North in the Alpharetta area it is mostly bone dry. I am hoping this gets better in the next few days.Susan Pegsmen wrote:I passed 4 or 5 stations in Atlanta with gas- only regular but plenty of gas no lines in Midtown and on downtown connector.
