I agree. i took me years to get her to understand, but I finally convinced my wife that it costs her money to drive to Sam's to get gas and back home unless she was going to be close for some other reason. I only get gas at Sam's if I am driving by or am shopping there. Premium on the street her was $3.82, so I saved $.71/gallon on 11 gallons. Worth the stop.Premium at Sam’s is $3.71 today.
I kind of laugh when I see all these people in lines at Sam’s and Costco. I can understand the waiting in line if they went shopping there. But a lot of these folks drive just for the gas. Most of them are only getting 15 gallons of gas, so they’re saving a whopping $3.70. That’s not including the time it takes to go there and back.
If they had a truck or a Suburban like I did with a 42 gallon gas tank, I could understand
Kind of bummed that my new to me Yukon XL only has a 31 gallon tank. My old suburban got 11.2 miles per gallon when towing. So with the 42 gallon tank I did not have to stop for three or 400 miles.
In theory without towing I could drive that thing 650 + miles.
it will be interesting to see what kind of mileage I will get out of this Yukon XL View attachment 140595
