Phoenix Gas Shortage

[Jack Evers]

Some of us are old enough to remember the gas shortages of the early 70's, long lines, closed pumps, etc. Well, Phoenix is presently in the throws of a local gasoline crisis and likely will be for the next couple of weeks. Check this out:

Now you have an excuse to use race gas in your Buick!

I'm sure that even the price of Race Gas has shot way up around here. The gas companies will use anything as an excuse to raise prices. For exammple, the price of Diesel has gone way up even though the Diesel supply has not been effected.

I'm curious to see how long the gas prices around here will stay sky high after all of this mess has been cleared up.

Same ole, same ole huh Nick? See a crisis and find away to make that crisis profitable. The refineries are loaded with fuel and they aren't delivering it to the dealers. Shades of the 70's all over again. Mark

What frosts MY ass is that gas up here in SLC has jumped 24 cents in the last 10 days! I guess we're trucking OUR gas to Phoenix, and so our <ahem> limited supplies <cough> are running low?

(where's that stinking [really] Bull$#!t flag???)

yesterday 87 octane was 2.09 in Sparks, reno is probably as bad or worse. There is NO reason for a price to jump here. the pipeline coming over the hill is still working, the tank farm off I80 didn't explode. its just not cool.


i'm afraid to see what the prices are today.

I was wondering when you guys would post something about the gas supply line. So far it hasn't gone up more than about ten cents down here in Tucson.

So lets hear it, how much is race gas up there?

Not the kind you are thinking about though

Well Jack, I bet it sucks hard. They are feeding us gas here but at $2.25 a gallon now. I so remember those gas lines and the polyester shirts. Damn, that is today huh? The more things change, the more they stay the same.,,,,,Mark
