Talking Gas Buddy

For my buddy's @ AFF from GAS BUDDY!

http://www.gasbuddy.com/

Check out this site to find the lowest prices for gas in North America!
While you're there check out Vancouver's Gas prices.
Remember our Gas Prices are for a Litre of gas!

Then you can have pity on us!

Re: Gas Buddy

Someone brought me some reading material about "Water4Gas"....This can't possibly work, can it?

I went to snopes and couldn't find anything.

Here is a site:

http://www.buywater4gas.com

You can google it and find all kind of sites.

I can't imagine this working. Anyone actually bought the kit and tried it?

Most of the sites are "advertisements" for this product. BE CAREFUL.

Here is what I found at wikianswers.com


Does water4gas really work?
In: Fuel and Engines

No and yes. Water injection has been shown to improve gas mileage and performance. Unfortunately it also DESTROYS YOUR ENGINE. It does the good by in effect increasing octane through the water slowing combustion. It does the bad by the fact that water rusts iron. Water injection was used as far back as WW2 on allied fighter planes as a TEMPORARY way to get out of a tight jam.

The hydrogen generating aspect of such a device is trivial, apart from the fact that it takes more energy than it creates to make hydrogen by electolosis.

The idea that you can get an alternate energy credit is sure to get you in TROUBLE WITH THE IRS since the hydrogen is trivial: you are running on gasoline.

Altering an engine control sensor which is part of the emission controls is ILLEGAL under most if not all state laws. Being paid as a mechanic to do this illegal under federal law.

If it becomes popular it will be another important step when buying a used car: make sure it never had a water injection system.

Re: Gas Buddy

I love my GPS for this... it has MSN direct on it and it connects to the net and gives me current gas prices to almost the minute in the area I am in at that time! It has saved me much money at times... and a lot of our gas stations here that are connected to grocery stores have a deal where if you buy 50 dollars or more of groceries you save 10 cents a gallon... So I have started buying most of my groceries there other than what I have to get at sams or walmart and then using that as my discount on those fillups

There is a store in Indiana that used to do that.... It was called Beasler's. There were certain items you could buy and you would get 10 to 12 cents off per gallon, per item.... We used to end up with .30 and .40 cents off....we were happy campers! I really liked those perks!

Re: Gas Buddy

This is a amount spent on total bill... Which with 6 of us it doesnt take much to get to 50 dollars now days!!! I do love those perks too because I have a Tom Thumb which is one of the main ones that does it... directly across from my house! It used to get frustrating because you also have to have a club card... but then they got it to where you only have to use your phone number.. easy easy... so I am a happy camper too!

Oh, that's terrible!...... I figured it up that, if I give up my starbucks or caribou coffee habbit, I could pay for a full tank of gas every 2 weeks.. .
