Gas - planning for the worst ???
As in every business, you have to look at what if.....
What if there is gas rationing? I'm sure some on this board remember odd/even days. For those who don't, back around 1980 you could only fill up on even days of the month if you license plate's last number was even. Same with odd. Just renewed license plate on spare car - luckily is is even - my main vehicle is odd.
I'm in a relatively rural area - average 50+ miles R/T per signing. Prices aren't as bad as a lot of places, but my cost/signing for fuel probably exceeds that of many of the urban NSAs.
My gas bill last month was $ 370.00. (I average 3500+ miles/month which includes driving for my other business).
I'm considering having a friend of mine, who owns some farm land, putting in a 1000 gallon fuel tank. If we do , we may have to hire a guard !!!!
Plan ahead.
