CitizenVectron Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 What could have solved this was less regulation. Then we'd have another 50 competing pipelines ready to fill the demand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subzwari1987 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Several stations near me had to close because they were completely out of gas. It’s getting pretty bad over here in NC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really trust that Chrysler makes vehicles to last as this is the last ICE vehicle (the last vehicle period if it were up to me) I intend to own. Having driven both I prefer the overall feel of the Sienna from drivability to features and perceived quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaysWho? Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Gas prices were not affected yet here, so I topped off today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleronin Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I seen gas prices where spiking here and was thinking that doesn't make sense. Than I remember it is Armed Forces weekend in my town and the 40-60 cent/gal spike was due local stations' collusion to milk everyone for as much as they can. The only time of year it is worth day the 140+ mile round trip to get gas in another town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar189 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Any word if this is going to spread to more states or for how long? I have to get gas every 2 to 3 days for my business. This will be a much bigger problem for me than Covid was if it reaches PA and lasts a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer it goes the more crunch you’ll see elsewhere as resources get rerouted, but the markets most directly served by this pipeline will remain the worst affected.

mclumber1 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 The right thing to do is to raise the price of gas to discourage hoarding. Maybe double the price after 10 gallons, and triple the price after 15 gallons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we can just cap the amount per fill-up, just like how last year many stores put a cap on how much toilet paper you could buy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
