once i saw same big tanker filling up cheron and mobil station on chapman & brookhurst...

i think station is just using franchised name but get the fuel from other 3rd party company... i'm probably wrong...

anyways.. my favorite is texaco.. i think they have the highest quality.
u sat and watched the SAME tanker fill up a mobil, then drive across the street to fill a chevron?

are you sure? or did u see a similar tanker on a different day?

if you think about it the gas will only coast you extra 30 dollars a month more for normal daily use.

I think of as the gas is still cheaper than starbucks coffee

Seems like i'm the only one enjoying these gas prices. Not as much traffic, bad drivers, and uninsured drivers. You notice that, cars are dropping like flys. People are carpooling more often (the way it should have been the whole time). I'm sorry, lets have gas prices go up to 5 dollars a gallon.
i'll put up with the traffic with gas ~$2 instead of 5

Shell. BTW, don't buy ARCO gas. They blend their own gas refined at the Carson refinery with several brands of independent gas. The quality control is terrible. That's why ARCO gas is so cheap. I once did marketing research for ARCO. I could tell you some stories.
Let's hear some, man!

I always fill up at the Shell on Foothill next to OSH. Shell and 76 are pretty much the only gas stations I have ever filled it with.
