Thanks for filling me in on that one Peter! A little late its not like i talk to you five times a week or anything! Ya it was hard to resist the 3.80 a gallon at Safeway. But its getting down there at valero also. We also have USA stations here and their stuff is quality too. I think they are affiliated with BP. As for the dodge thing that twists my nipple!

When you become a supporter that stuff goes away. The site looks much cleaner.

ask around in the fueling checkstand with someone that knows: the Safeways are supposed to be running B-20. That might explain the smell and the lousy mileage. Supposed to be cheaper too, from what I heard.

Not a well known fact, was under the radar until I talked to one of the Transports.

After saying that,,, Here in Reno, Sacto and Gay Bay Safeway is straight chemicals masquerading as fuel.

my $.02 your mileage can and will vary

I have noticed a big drop in MPGs when I fill up at an exxon truck stop on the way to work comparied to other stations in the area. The last time I filled up there I only got 13 MPG but there price now 3.69 where everyone else is 3.99 to 4.09.

WIll congrats on becoming a supporter you'll love the clean look of the site.
