Default We are running out of gas

Ontario Canada is running out of gas, a combination refinery fire at Esso and rail strike. I paid $1.08 per litre tonight and every other station is dry.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, the solution? Ship your car down to sunny Florida, plenty of gas and plenty of sunshine.

stop at your hardware store and get some "denatured alcohol" ..

it also provides clean emmissions

Don't worry about the gas, pretty soon the salmon war is going to start.

Supply lines not likely to be back to normal until next week. Even when you find a station with gas they often have no premium. Not too sure how the Northstar reacts to Regular, but I don't plan to find out. Denatured Alcohol, Salmon Wars? tell more...

I saw recently where their sales were off, I didn't have time to read the article though, my guess is the price of the car is not offsetting the price of gas? Or competition? Or now that the price of gas is under 3 bucks people are going back to HP?

I know the feeling, after hurricane Wilma, gas from port everglades was stalled for some time. Trying to keep the gernerator going took some calling in favors.

I wouldn't worry about running the N* on regular for a couple of tanks, you may get some knocking/pinging. just take it a little easy. What is the octane for regular gas up there?

Salmon war? Look it up because it's gonna be a bad one.

After what happened to the market today and the forcast for tomorrow, few will be talking about gas prices or shortage.
Would be nice if the markets could be closed tomorrow and let everyone just sit back and mull over what they are really doing and the real cause.
