      Gas prices. If price fixing is illegal then why is every single station the exact same price?

        Costco and Sams have a never-ending gas price battle going on where I live and their gas prices are always 15-20% less than any other place in town. $3.39/gl at all stations except for those two and they’re $2.99/gl right now. It’s been this way for years.

            Starting your car is with 7 seconds of idling, and this somehow magically applies to motors of any displacement or intake type! If you’re gonna sit for more than 7 seconds, shutting your car off is the economical choice.
