I drove from Las Vegas to LA. Checked my mileage - normal. Since then refuleled several times
in LA (Chevron). Consinstenly getting 15-20% less miles per gallon then in Nevada. Same driving. What is with LA gas? |

In california you get to pay more money to put corn in your gas tank. Not only does it ruin your gas mileage, but it costs more. Yay!
Also, it pisses the mexicans off cause it really raises the prices of corn, and in Mexico most of the corn is imported from US, the equation works out to, more money + corn in fuel tank = expensive tortillas if you're looking for a scientific way of describing the gas situation in cali. --------------------  psalm 69 |
