Sitting in line for gas ????

[Deerthug]

Its funny that as a hunter I have the patience to sit all day but not to wait in a long line for gas. It is really frustrating.

[tughillhunter]

I hear you there....... That really sucks.

[oneidacountyhunter]

It would be even worse if after waiting that long in line the pumps were empty! LOL hope I didn't jinx ya

[Deerthug]

I sitting now for 45 mins and I just spoke to a guy who was walking up and said the sta is not open , no sign no one there. He was supposed to be open at 6 today and he was getting constant deliveries yesterday. Idk what to do.

It really sucks when life gets messed up due to some thing you cant control hope things get better for you

Well after nearly two hrs waiting the sta opens and there is no gas. They could have at least roped it off and put up a sign. Then i drive 1/4 mile further north and the Hess is pumping but the line was even longer. I'm done! Going back to riding my bike.

????Don't you guys pump your own gas...why wouldn't the guy in front realize the pumps weren't on and drive away?

[Deerthug]

I usually do but this was a full service station which was supposed to be open and pumping at 6am. They were getting deliveries the past two days.

I do and the lines went for miles

I drove my boss home last night to Freehold NJ. Took me 15 minutes to gas up at Costco on the way back to SI (around 10PM). Within a week everything should be back to normal.

Heard on news that NJ is doing that.

And there are Armed Nat Guard troops guarding stations in Hicksville, Syosset and Westbury. Some really scary $hit just to get gas.

I'm seeing and hearing that the stations, even if they have gas, will only open when there is a policeman around. This was happening at Hess in Commack.

Yep, I heard the same thing last night, starting today.

I remember almost getting stranded upstate with my dad after hunting because of the 1976 gas crisis. This should serve as a wake up call to the public.

[Geno C]

Woke up at 3am to go gas hunting, there is nothing! Lines are atleast a half mile long and people are actually sleeping on a line in their cars for a supposed gas delivery at 3 stations that I saw for over 15 hours!! You got to be kidding me. I can't find gas anywhere...

NJ is implementing that right now. Talk about time travel.

I hope you recover soon from the huricane deerthug and everyone else affected by Sandy.My ex sister in law was named Sandy and I didn't like her either.Coincidence ?

[landtracdeerhunter]

Really fell bad for u people. Bad enough u get hammered from Mother Nature, then u get hammered again from the results. Are gas deliveries still curtailed , power issues, or just over demand? Do u see any progress? The news agencies up her are to worried about Obama to report anything decent about your areas.

My cousin just told me the Shell station on RT202/35 in Cortland or maybe it was Yorktown (same area I think ) was price gouging selling gas at $4.79

Not surprised it didn't happen sooner. Guys are selling 5 gallons at a time for $100 each on the streets of Queens.

Went to get gas with the truck but did not have enough gas to sit inline. Ran home got the other car and 2 5 gallon tanks and waited in line. Waited inline and filled up in 1 hour. Ran home put 5 gal in truck went back waited and fled up within an hour 10. Not bad!! deer here I come

So I have about a 1/4 tank of gas. I take the train in to work so I wasn't so concerned about gas. I'm getting my hair cut and the owner comes in and says just filled up and no line. He uses E85,

bingo the light goes off in my head. My Tahoe takes that so off I went and filled up with no line at all. I was lucky!! For once it pays to have the flex fuel truck!
