More convenience, they know hired hand drivers are not going price shopping, will take the closest big lot station with a cafe attached, can charge anything. All JMHO

Those bad oil companies are making 2 or 3 cents per gallon !!!! terrible !

and the gooberment is making 40 or 50 cents

but we need them both, don't we ?
without one, no fuel, without the other, no roads

Enjoy your vacation, I haven't been able to schedule one this year :(

I assure you the Flying J, Loves and the other big retailers are making way more than 2 or 3 cents per gallon when the little guys who pays more for it is 25 cents a gallon cheaper. But your point is well taken, not sure how big oil exploration companies are staying afloat with oil under $40 at the wellhead. Besides fuel is about the cheapest thing we do with these things and it brings a lot of enjoyment.
