I've noticed lately that most of the pumps in Georgia have a state seal across them, showing that the pump has been checked and calibrated. But regardless, at these prices I'll be keeping a close eye on the price vs output for sure.

I think not. If a news station reported on that, it would be a scandal ALL over the news and likely on the national news. The real story is that three CISCO truck stops tried this, were shut down, tried it again and were shut down again.<BR/>http://agr.georgia.gov/00/press/detail/ … 19,00.html<BR/>http://www.news4jax.com/news4georgia/15 … etail.html<BR/><BR/>The only method of telling that you have gotten a gallon of gas is to get a container that only holds a gallon and fill it and see what the pump says. If you are comparing the price on the pump and the amount on the pump, you will only see that last .9 cent rounded up to a whole cent. But I assure you that if they fixed it to lie in one place (the gallons), it will most assuredly lie in the other (the price).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
