The majority were not but the few that were had lines of people with gas jugs in their hands waiting to get gas. Not to mention all the cars in line out in the street waiting too. I have enough gas to last another day and a half then I will be with them too...jimmy

You should read Marc Haibeck's description on using the ZR-1 as a fuel tanker. He had to have a generator run for several days and he set up the car as his fuel source. His descripton is on his ZR1Specialist.com website. Of course if you are out of gas and none is available, the story won't help much. Good Luck!--Bob

Rick,
So glad to hear that your family is okay and all of you are holding up under this bad situation. You all be safe!

I hear ya about the fuel situation. I have two gas stations across the street from me and the crowds are starting to get a bit "testy". Man this don't look too good on the essential supplies situation going forward. Most of the local supermarkets look like picked over carcasses out in the desert!

:cheers:
Tom

Thanks Tom I totally forgot about the Tanker set up , I'll use this as a last resort. Got fuel this morning at 6am, was driving around and saw a stations lights come on and I turned around and got in a very short line. Now I'm good for awhile.

Again thanks to you and warp ten for the suggestions...jimmy

Auntie "Em ............................ mucho destruction.Some of my life long buddy's lost everything but they're lives. The south facing shore's got a bad beating. The waves on the open bay were pounding our window's in. We had to leave the house and are living at a bud's house in Bluepoint NY as too much mold growing in our house. The house is being gutted tomorrow.

We all lost a lot... more than I care to say (part's etc.) All the lost Bull $hit can be replaced.

When I thought we had it tough. I saw people that lost much much more. Made me happy for what we have left.

Hey. We are alive and well....... We will rebuild and be back better than ever.

Thank's for your well wish's and concern's. It help's. Kiss your loved one's tonight. For life is good.


All is on limited I-Net access, cell etc no gas limited food. :cheers:

Frank,

Super to hear you are ok. Looks like my old neighborhood in Staten Island got wiped out. So yes things can be worst. BTW, the FBI would be happy to take care of your ZRs and Z06 if you need a place to hold em.
