Do you really believe Los Pinos trucks are headed south? Or are you thinking up from Cd. Constitution? Either way, just good business sense,
especially with the new route going EAST.
I don't have a BUCKET LIST, but I do have a F***- IT LIST a mile long!

Los Pinos has farms in BCS and are constantly moving produce North by truck and returning. Those were the trucks people saw at Gonzaga/Rancho Grande.

The point I want to make:
The commercial Semi-Trucks/Rigs do not need that Pemex station there.
Why:
OK. First off, semis in the USA use diesel fuel, not gasoline. The average long-haul semi has two fuel tanks, and with each tank holding between
100 and 150 gallons of diesel. A good rate of fuel consumption for a loaded semi is around 6 miles per gallon (MPG), so the average semi can run
between 1200 and 1800 miles from one fill up.
I copied that info from Google.....

this year some de-regulation has come to the gas business in mexico
in a couple of years Texaco and Arco are arriving...selling gas
they may want to "buy" stations...what a "windfall"
Texaco and Arco have quite a bit of money to spend to be "players" in a new "market"
just thinking...again

... Los Pinos bought cents on a peso the Santa Maria in San Quintin and the Mision Cataviña along with the gas station across from it back when
Calderon was president, it all started booming when Fox became the first PAN president... Los Pinos has a long history of power abuse, just look at
the present situation with the farm laborers and the said 100 pesos a day salary... all built on the huge government grants and "connections" :

I suspect with the on-going dispute you will see a lot of these types of article. Saw an article about the US trained union organizers working San
Quintin. Its almost as if each side owns newspapers/news outlets.
Where is out Spelling Cop. The article continuously misspells San Quintin (Quentin).

The article spells the place correctly: El Poder en San Quintín
It is when you use the auto translator, does it change Quintín to Quentin (the English spelling).
