Gas Station Rip Offs NOT COOL

OK ...I am sensative to gas prices right now!!  We are averaging 9.8 Miles to the gallon.  Not Bad!

Well check out these crooks....

I see that the price of gas is $3.65.  Wow I think, that's the cheapest I have seen in 100 miles...So I go in and buy some gas.  The beast takes 87 Octane, thank God, So I grab the 87 and fill the pig.

Hey wait a minute...I thought it was $3.65 not $3.75?????  Get this....they put $3.65 on the big sign for Super Unleaded....the 89 Octane.  Most people...or maybe just me, just assume that the cheapest price is the lowest Octane.  It happened again at the next station.  I know, what am I stupid?  But it's a habit.  

So be careful out there.....

My neighbor just drove a 40 ft. Class A RV from Atlanta to St. Louis this weekend and averaged 8 mpg using diesel. You guys are doing pretty good.
