Re: Locking gas cap broken
Crap man on our last road trip, I got $120.00 worth in my CJ7 at one
place!! Another place managed to get 85 liters into my 76 liter tank,
but that was only $98.00 worth....

Re: Locking gas cap broken
I got gasoline at Marathon tonight for $2.39 per gallon. Shell was also
$2.39, Mobil was $2.40 but with a fill-up you got a $5 gift card from a
local grocery.
