Ended up walking 2 blocks to Costco to find out they don't sell gas tanks then back to another gas station to pay $10 for a one gallon tank. Well because the Rover was on a slight incline the one gallon I put in it wasn't enough to start it. Another trip to the gas station for one more gallon of gas before putting $70 dollars worth in it at Costco. Learned an important lesson that if the yellow light comes on pull into the next station and feed her.

I dont know how much you drive each week, but for me it equates to about once a week I'm getting gas, if we are on a trip I get gas at about the 1/2 tank mark, just a hell of alot cheaper that way.
Plus on long trips it gives me a chance to stretch my legs.

Do you have a Shell Saver Card? Its free. It saves you $.02 per gal on gas.
