This is a true story, so read it carefully.
On April 24, 2008, I stopped at a Kangaroo BP gas station, located at 1325
Main Street , Cartersville , GA. My truck's gas gauge was on 1/4 of a tank.
I use the mid-grade, which was priced at $3.71 per gallon. When my tank is
at this point, it takes somewhere around 14 gallon's to fill it up. When the
pump showed 14 gallons had been pumped I began to slow it down, then to my
surprise it went to 15, then 16. I even looked under my truck to see if it
was being spilled. It was not. Then it showed 17 gallons had been pumped.
It stopped at almost 18 gallons.

This was very strange to me, since my truck has only an 18 gallon tank. I
went on my way a little confused, then on the evening news I heard a report
that 1 out of 4 gas stations had calibrated the ir pumps to show more gas had
been pumped than a person actually got.

Here is how to check a pump to see if you are getting the right amount:

Whichever grade you are using, put EXACTLY 10 GALLONS in your tank, then
look at the dollar amount, if the dollar amount is not EXACTLY 10 times
the price of the fuel you have chosen, then the pumps are rigged. In my
case as I said the mid-grade was $3.71 9/10 per gallon, my dollar amount for
10 gallons should have been $37.19. If I had only check the pump. It
doesn't matter where you pump gas, please check the 10 gallon price. If you
do find a station that is cheating, contact the Georgia Agriculture
Department, and direct your comments to Tommy Irvin, Commissioner. In other
states contact proper authorities.

Please don't delete this until you have sent it to all people in your
address book. We need to put a stop to this outrageous cheating of
customers. The gas companies are making enough profits at honest rates
