    I don't mind that as much as the missing squeegees. I can clean the windows in the time it takes to fill up, but I get it. Most would waste time.

    It would be awesome if you could buy the hotdog combo at the pump. You just roll by a little booth at the exit and they hand you the order.

    I'm at Costco every week and I don't drive a lot so I fill up every other week when I'm at about 1/2 tank. Haven't had any complaints yet.

    And if you want to see busy Costco gas stations, go to Hawaii. It's absolutely nuts there. :eek:

    Links with sources matters a hell of a lot more than "I work at a refinery".

    Besides, please do link to a scientific review of the earth being flat, I love to see it.

    This thread makes me sad that there's neither a Costco nor a Wawa for at least a 90 minute drive. You all don't know how privileged you really are.

    Do have Sheetz, though.. I guess I'll try to be thankful for that.

    just got back from road trip, did somewhat empirical experiment with gas. mpg ranged from 14-21, with top 3 fill ups coming from Sunoco believe it or not. Alternated fill ups so not all in same terrain or back to bacl feom one vendor. Costco was middle tier. Pilot gas sucked bad every time as did most of the local small spots off beaten path. Did 10k miles so about 30-40 fill ups including interstates and local roads. Got good mpg in tennessee on all fills.

    Many on here need to read up on how fuel transportation, storage, and distribution actually works.

    Got a rebate check thingie for over $500 from CostCo. Wife got a nice new Fanciass vacuum and a bunch of cash. Gas runs my 19 tuned just fine but a bit of a hassle with lines and out of the way for me. I also run Safeway junk fuel, Shell, Arco...........

    Castco gas is the way to go, but i avoid ARCO at all cost. I purchased 91 octane at arco and my 4runner ran like crap.

    I shop at Costco about two times a month and when there, get their gas. It seems like it is a decent quality.

    It can be. A new one is just a few miles from me, so quick trips are easy if I can keep the blinders on.
