What the hell are you talking about man.
The way gas prices are these days gas stations mark gases whatever they want or at least it seems that way. When I saw one gas station 30Cents cheaper then another that was 3 miles down the road.
Lets be safe and say you save on average 20 cents a gallon and fill your tank. average 16 gallon tank. and the average cost of gas 3 dollars a gallon.
$3.20 x 16 gallons= $51.2
vs
3.0 x 16 gallons = $48
That's a difference of $3.2
that means you get an extra gallon of gas plus 20 cents extra. Lets exclude the 20 cents. I would say the average car gets 18 miles per gallon in the city.
There is no way you would waste that 18 miles looking for a gas station. If you know before hand what the prices are then you could efficiently use your gas to get to that gas station.
SINCE THE ANNUAL MILEAGE OF THE AVERAGE USER IS AROUND 12,000
16 gallons x 18 miles/per gallon = 288 miles per tank.
12,000 annual miles/ 288miles per tank= 41.8 refills.
Since you will be saving an extra gallon of gas every refill then you would be saving around 42 gallons of gas and $134 a year.
Since United States of America has a population of around 310 million people, Lets exclude the rest of the world.
310 million people x 42 gallons of gas saved = 13,020,000,000 billion gallons of gas saved a YEAR!
You would not only people helping yourself but you would be helping the world!!
So before you put in your 2 cents make sure you know what your talking about!
Tinkerbell keep on doing what your doing girl dont let these kinds of people sway you from what is right
