One think that always call my attention is why people fill the tank in the Weston's gas stations? The price it is always at least 17 to 20 cents more expensive per gallon, than the gas stations outside Weston. Even in the Keys its cheaper than is in Weston. I know you'll tell that they are taxed higher and all that crap. I dont take it. It outreage me to watch how the soccer moms with fat asses and gas guzzler fill the tank in Shell at indian trace and saddle club. LETS BOYCOTT WESTON's GAS STATIONS. DONT BUY GASOLINE FROM THEM!

If you travel outside Weston, lets say to sunrise, pembroke, copper city, plantation, fort lauderdale or even miami you have plenty opportunities to fill the tank and save around $ 3 . I think that if we make the effort wisely, the stations owner will have to drop down the price to normal standars. If the taxes are the problem, then they will have to talk to Mr Hersh and the gang to fix the problem. LETS DO IT I know this will work!!!!!!!!

Arrow Gas Boycott

As you said 10 cents a gallon will make $ 2 a tank will make 4 a week and $16 a month, which makes around $180 annual, JUST FOR FILLING OUT OUTSIDE THIS EXPENSIVE CITY!!!

I never buy gas in Weston unless I am running on fumes. I have yet to understand why we have to pay an additional premium of 10 cents p/g or more!! What is that!

The reason why it costs more is because idiots will pay more. Vote with your wallets if you would like to see a change! I don't live in Weston but I'm just saying.

I agree...gasoline is an issue everyone should be interested in. but honestly i think the answer is using natural resources wisely. Sell the huge truck that gets 15mpg and get something smarter. if you have more than 2 kids, then atleast consider a more economocal minivan or something. Gas prices are only going to go higher as the supply diminishes. If you insist on driving a gass guzzling vehicle, then your going to have to pay the price for it....ofcourse there are those that haul stuff as part of a job and need a truck to do it but im sure 90% of trucks out there could be replaced by something smaller and more effecient.

sorry for the political rant and thread hijack....take offense if you want but thats the situation we are in right now. We are paying more for gasoline now...adapt to that fact...

I respect your opinion. I agree that small cars/trucks and more efficiency comsuption is the key to save this world and I dont think making these opinions is political. Everybody should be concern about this point.

On the other hand. Honestly I dont believe that refineries, gas guzzlers and light bulbs are the reason why gas went up.
I think that this goverment sell out this bull s*** to us. It is courious how gas went down last year during elections season. Come on! Seems like no refinery problems were at the time.....

Default Just What I Though...

Nobody cares about gas prices. We deserve $ 5 or 6 a gallon. May be at that point somebody will cry out. We are not a rich country but a country of rich people.
