East side of Raleigh here... I found some for the daily this morning without waiting (on the corner across from the station where the loogie-spittin' idiots were that were on the news, no less), but everywhere looked to be out again this evening. Luckily, I also had over a half tank in both Challengers. Yesterday was beautiful, so I drove the old one to work. At least the truck's full now, so I should be good to make it to work and back for another week.
I did see an F150 with one of those big square (what are they, 300 gallons?) totes with the cage around it earlier. It looked to be empty. I guess they were planning to suck a pump dry at some point, though.
1968 Charger project. I don't have a fender tag or a buildsheet, so it's getting a 440. Help me decide on a color--most everything looks great! (NOT white. My Challenger is white. Need some variety :D) 1974 Challenger 360 2012 Challenger R/T 1991 Dakota 5.2

I was at Myrtle Beach bike week all last week, drove to Charlotte and Florida in the last couple of days, now in Virginia Beach and heading to Tryon, NC in the morning. MB is always fun! Anyone needing parts to go to the midwest in the next day or so better get a hold of me! Gas was tough to find last Thursday and riding Harley's around was not good as they only take 3=5 gallons, but luckily I had gotten gas on Tuesday so I had enough. Heading back to Charlotte on Friday was interesting to say the least! All in all it didn't affect me too much. All is good now, though the MSM is still saying that 30% of the stations still do not have gas in VA and NC. Stick with truck stops like Loves and Pilot/FlyingJ as they have their own truck fleet and none have been out of fuel that I stopped at. No midgrade and premium out there much, first time I had ever put 87 in my bike. but it ran fine...

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
