I wonder if things will get desperate enough that people will start jacking them. I know I want to jack me one https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png . If only I have somewhere to hide it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif



Ours just got to $1.629/L for 98. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif Diesel's at it's highest in history, first time over a dollar at $1.019/L https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

All anyone has to do is get into an airport at night, watch out for the security guard, take a gas can up to the 100ll fuel truck, find the nozzle on the bottom that says "sump", turn the lever and fill up the can. No way of tracking it that way, don't even need the keys to the truck to turn on the pump. Not that I do that when I have access to a half dozen 50 gallon drums full of waste sumped fuel already.

yeah, but you could get some **** in your car with sumped fuel.. iv'e seen some shitty ass low lead come outta 172's befopre

i heard from a co-worker that gas is 6.06 in arizona. is this true or not? AZ locals, chime in!

Our fuel is delivered weekly, and I sump off the top of the barrels. Water and debri, what little there is, sinks to the bottom. Also AV-GAS doesn't break down like gasoline.

A vw diesel is a very good engine, I wouldn't be concerned about reliability.

So long as you don't abuse or modify a car it should stay highly reliable, so long as you do regular mantainace.

$3.59 here seems like alot of people flipped out here,long lines at the pump looks as if the end is nigh.Im not gonna complain....some of you have it alot worse than us.
