Just wait until everyone fills up, a day or two later there will be deliveries that hit and everyone will still have 3/4 of a tank!

Originally posted by Bullydog View PostThanks to WFAA, this all started a panic last night. If people up here would just buy gas like normal we would be fine. Gas still comes in from other places. I passed 3 or 4 gas tankers going Southbound on 75 from Sherman today. Another was filling up a station at 121 and Custer when I went by at 4:30.

There is no shortage of fuel, its panic that has everyone filling up and the trucks to refill stations is what is taking time. There are millions of gallons of fuel stored for surplus. Most of the fuel we get doesn't even come from local refineries. I know for a fact here in corpus none of the fuel produced here stays here

I wasn't panic buying this morning as I was below when I normally fill up. I drove past a couple gas stations to get to HEB to give them business with all the help they have provided. They were out with signs saying it was coming. The next one I went to only had premium so I went to the next one and filled up. This was in Pflugerville (Austin Area)
I don't think there will be a shortage once the panic is over but prices have already gone up (not sure where the line is on gouging) and I bet they keep going up.

Gas panic is in full swing in Ft Worth. I went by 5 stations that had signs "no gas, diesel only". Costco had about 20 cars in line at each pump. When I finally found gas I paid $2.43. QT is only selling gas from 1/2 of their 100+ Metroplex locations. Usually your best bet is a station on an interstate as far away from town as possible. It is going to make for and interesting Labor Day travel weekend...
