33 cents a gallon and 423 miles out of my tank

So, those of you that are familiar with California, I was driving from Sacramento back to San Diego.

I filled up at Shell in Sacramento to begin my drive, I made it all the way down to LA before I had to fill up. My gas light had just turned on at 420 miles and I didn't want to push it, plus I had to **** really bad, so I pulled off at a 76 station to get gas.

When I got there, I didn't even check the price of gas, but noticed the dollar amount was moving really slow, so I just assumed it was a slow pump. Finally, it clicked off at $5.00. When I looked at the gallon amount, it was at 16+, and when I looked at the gas price at the pump, and it was .33 cents a gallon! There was a guy in a G37 behind me as well that got it for that price. Lucky day for us!!







Btw, I went over the Grapevine on my way back, and had to get on the accelerator a few times to make it around idiot drivers, so I'm sure I could of gotten 27mpg out of this tank if it wasn't for that.
