NC leading the way with most sheeple and panic at the stations.. 24% of stations out of gas now, most states well below 10% without gas.

I'm actually going to be driving down to Southern CA next month, and I know I'll be paying about $4.50/gal if it's already over $4. I'll be taking Interstate 5 south which has only 2 lanes, and there are gas stations, but since they are along the freeway, gas is usually more expensive.

Gov. Copper said improved from 81% wo to 79%. Praised people for not hoarding. Is the idiot stoned? Does he even live in NC?

I filled the truck Wednesday. Holds 36 gls so close to 700 miles of range. Hopefully that holds me till we get some stations re-filled.

If you drive an electric car, this would not be effecting you, clearly.


I mean, come on, just because gas prices skyrocket and shipping is effected by shortages, if you drive an electric car you won't experience any problems from that. You'll get your deliveries, and the prices you pay for things in stores won't go up like they will for everyone who drives a gas powered vehicle. You're special!
