[quote:dac:MV80MzE0ODI3Xzc4NTc3Mzg5XzZCNERGQjU1] [quote:Bloodreddeuce:MV80MzE0ODI3Xzc4NTc1OTA1X0RCQzcwMkI=] Where I live here in SC gas was $1.58 so I filled both my vehicles, my boat and two 5 gal containers. I know in the long run it won't be enough but it will have to do. As long as the electric stays on I will be fine. I have a small generator and that's the reason I decided to buy the gas. I thought about purchasing a few more 5 gal containers but shit they want $40 each for them now so I passed. [/quote] Still 1.83 in Myrtle Beach after 10 cents loyalty discount. I just now got back from filling three 2.5 gal cans. Thought being there may be disruptions trying to move it from refinery to stations and/or stations to us if workers are sick. If nothing happens then I have a pre-paid fill up, or gas for our generator. May fill 1 more next time I'm out and about. [/quote]
Original Message
So I have several contacts in the armed forces and a couple of them have warned to stock up on fuel. I know there have been several posts here about this yet I am not sure of the validity of this.
If there really is something way more sinister than the virus about to happen then yes , I could see where having some fuel reserves would be a good thing.
Or maybe if they do go ahead and initiate a 2 week or more nationwide quarantine then again, it would probably be a good idea to have extra fuel in case the power goes out.
Either way, we are all most certainly living in unsure, crazy times and the only way America will get through this is if we all stand together. Take care of your neighbors and they will take care of you!
