Re: Wow! Oil hits $60/barrel today

I'm not sure what the difference between Holiday and BP fuel is, other than Holiday advertises thiers as "Blue Planet", which I assume means that it has more ethanol in it or something. But anyway, I have used Holiday in the past, and I currently use BP. The only reason I used Holiday is because there is a gas station just down the street from me, and it was convenient. But when I noticed that my truck started knocking really bad, I replaced the fuel filter, thinking that it was old and clogged, and the motor wasn't getting enough fuel. But when it was still knocking I started using BP more often and noticed that it didn't knock. So, ever since I started using only BP, and nothing else, I haven't had a single problem.

You can take that for whatever it's worth, but that has been my experience, so that's why I use BP.

As far as the gas prices go, I'll just say this. There's little to nothing I can do to change what I get charged for gas. I could waste my energy worrying about gas prices, and bitching about how they should be lower. But I would rather use my energy torwards things that I have more control over. If gas prices jumped up by $5.00 I might think a little differently, but $0.50 over a 6 month time frame isn't worth my time and effort.
