Click to expand... Bingo! Back in the days of the Blizzard of '78, most all gas pumps were mechanical in nature. Today, 99% of gas pumps are all electronic. Without electricity, the gas stays in the ground! You can't get it out in any practical fashion. So unless you have your own gravity-fed tank farm, once your car/truck tank is empty, there she sits dead until the SHTF situation is all over!
