Oh yeah. Haha

South Florida, I run premium.

The local Costco which has the absolute cheapest gas is $5.49, but the lines are so long that some people will skip and pay the higher prices of gas stations like Shell and Chevron, which are mostly empty

If someone says something I don't agree with, I don't cuss them out, call them every name in the book, and then doxx them.

That's how bad AZ is. This one Mod who threatened me told me I was the worst troll in 20 years because I kept making them look like fools repeatedly (after going in there respectfully, the exact same way I am here), I'm kinda proud of that honestly that I ground them down that much-- it's like a badge of honor. They are beyond absurd in there.

Some people can say whatever they want, others get doxxed and their posts deleted.

I always wondered how much are folks really saving on going to any gas station with cheap gas with a long line and or out of the way?

AcuraZine. Don't waste your time.

This one mod is a lawyer and after he doxxed me I told him I reported him to the state bar lol and had tons of screenshots. He's probably lying bc any lawyer wouldn't be so stupid online.

I bought gas at Costco for more than 10 years. If you know how to time it, you get in and out like a regular gas station. It's about 2 miles from my office so I would get there by 7:30am and be out in 5 minutes. If you get there anytime after 8am, forget it. Now all Costco gas stations are packed no matter what time

OK, you had an Acura. Some reason, I can't picture you driving a 4 banger

Lol it was a 270hp TL. :-). V6, and a sweet one at that.

But that was the last 6 cylinder car I owned, yes.
