Yeah, my Suburban is no fun to fill. Put $72 in it the other day. 42 gallon tank. Paid $1.54.9 last night for diesel at Flying J. premium was $2.08.9. Wife (560SL) and daughter (300E) and ot real happy. Daughter is threatening to go back to driving '83 300D that she wrecked last year. Wife HATES diesels and uses credit card for gas anyway so she doesn't really feel the pain. Plus, somehow, I always seem to be in the drivers seat of her car when it needs gas. Wife is obviously smarter than me-but we knew that. Another thing on gas pumps. When you use credit card at pump, many automatically put a "hold" on $50 worth of credit (thus the $50 limit). Trouble is, it takes awhile for it to come off and reflect the actual purchase price.
