RE: [Chevelle-list] I need gas
I lucked out last night. I drove past 4-5 stations with lng lines (30+ cars from the pump) and finally found one where I pulled up and was the 5th car from the pump. Still took me 30 min., but I got 30 gallons at $1.88/gal.

Re: [Chevelle-list] I need gas
I sue hope this gets fixed in the next week. I'm driving out to Sierra Vista (an hour Southeast of Tucson), and then to the Phoenix area next week. Does this means that I should make sure I can get to Tucson from Quartzite or something like that? -Brad- On Monday, August 18, 2003, at 09:40 AM, Rodney. wrote: I lucked out last night.

Re: [Chevelle-list] I need gas
I think Tucson is ok..the pipeline that ruptured is in between Tucson and Phoenix. It's supposed to be back online real soon. they are waiting for the federal gov'ernment to ok it, it's already fixed just waiting for them to give it the ok..for some reason the gov't hasn't done it yet..so you should be ok, just gas up in Tucson before you head north..funny, i bought my Chevelle from a guy in Sierra Vista...tom

RE: [Chevelle-list] I need gas
Hopefully everything will be in order soon. I just sat in a line at an Albertson's for 50 minutes so I could get the luxury of putting $45.00 in my S10 and 1 small can (@ 1.94 a gallonwhat a steal ;-) ). I heard that a Mesa station was selling gas for $3.05 a gallon and one in Phoenix had gas for $3.95 a gallonIt's wrong to wish bad things on people, but... Rumor has it this BS will be going on for probably 10 more days. People are actually following the gas trucks around waiting for them to stopBTW, the gas placards on the sides of the tankerare identified with the "1203- flammable" designation.

RE: [Chevelle-list] I need gas
As of now, you can still GET gas... Just be prepared to wait in LONG lines. The price will probably be going way up too, the longer this goes on. I heard this morning that a place in Chandler was over $3/gal. I also heard a few places in the East valley were in the $2.60 range. So far around here on the west side it's been around $1.80-$1.97 other than the one place I saw that was $2.19. Let us know right before you leave and we'll give you an update on the situation. Where are you coming from? California I'm assuming since you mentioned Quartzite?

RE: [Chevelle-list] I need gas
Yep, coming from SoCal. If you're paying $1.80-$1.97, it will actually be cheaper than we have here. The cheapest regular I have seen is $1.83, with most over $1.90. We have refineries all over, yet our prices jump when a pipeline ruptures in Arizona! I'm leaving in one week. We'll spend the weekdays in Sierra Vista (don't ask me why an elderly lady would choose to move way out there...) and then head to Scottsdale for the Millard Fillmore Corvette Classic (http://www.corvette-paradise.com/MILLARD.html) for the weekend.
