It's nice if your local supply keeps the price based on what they paid
rather than what they's have to pay to replace it. Our guys are doing
the former and I thanks them.


They are the ones without much business savvy and know nothing of
economics. If prices vary greatly and they do that they won't be
around long. OTOH if it's a municipality that purchases in quantity
it doesn't matter as much if they aren't trying to make a profit.

Now the big question is whether to fill our private tank as soon as it
empties or wait a few weeks for the price to peak and hopefully come
down just a bit. Who has the crystal ball?

We just got a new load of fuel yesterday and the price jumped from $2.94
per gallon to $3.52 per gallon for 100LL. I will have to pull the MP back
a little more.



Been 'lucky' so far! Our local strip went from $2.59 to $3 per gallon for
100LL a couple months ago. Checked the price this last Monday and it was
still at $3 when auto gas in town was selling for $3.09...

Where can I find an STC for putting 100LL in my car??? ;-)
