Mainecoons Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 No, things sure aren't getting back to normal. More than 80 percent of gas stations closed in GDL. About the same here. Less than half the normal supply getting through. People can conserve and drive less some but it is pretty hard for that to cover a reduction of this magnitude. I'm assuming the car wash is closed temporarily. Every time they try to open the pipeline, it is tapped by the thieves. Amazing these people can't be apprehended and stopped.

crynoutloud Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 I think there are a lot of people driving around who don't realize they should be conserving their gas. The seriousness of the problem has not sunk in. I will not move my car until it is an emergency. Workers need the gas. After draining all these station tanks, this problem could go on for months if not longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechnoNorm Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Individually we can correctly have tire pressure, for maybe 10% gasoline savings (at tire shops) and reduce use of our accelerator / brakes. Minimizing trips ofcourse is a basic issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayBearII Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 BP by the Oxxo in La Canacinta (west of Ajijic) does not have much of a line right now, if you need gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We spoke to the owner and he said he is going to try and just sell cars. If that does not work out well, he will go back to washing cars. Those were his comments of a week ago. He did say it is extremely hard to get good help when operating a car wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
