I am wondering if Antonio gets hit deliveries from up north rather than from down south. Shortages seem to hit further south more often yet no traveler passes Antonio's station without filling up. Of course, ER aint exactly a metropolis.

BS, can you clarify the word "unusal"....is it usual or unusual for them to be out at VJM lately?

They come from the Pemex depot near Ensenada.

let me clarify...
great "SERVICE" as usual at antonios

"vjm"??? pbj...abc...nbc...gov...com...

for us simpletons...
VJM = the estimated volume use for a month in the consumer sector

It is VERY unsusal for Villa Jesus Maria (VJM) to be out og gas or deisel lately and i've been pounding the pavement all year every two weeks:wow:

I usually stop at Villa Jesus Maria because Guerrero is out every other trip and i hate to carry extra cans of deisel because it STINKS!!!:lol:
and....when i just look at deisel...it get on me:lol:

It Used To Be


That the tank farm in La Paz fed everything north to Guerrero Negro and Jesus Maria and the tank farm in Ensenada fed everyone down to Cataviņa. Pipas crossing over from Guaymas to Sta Rosalia made emergency shipments. Most of the fuel from Topolobampo to La Paz is shipped by barge.

Also PROFECO is cleaning out crooked pumps and personnel. Stations that cheat are shut down until new tamper-proof pumps are installed costing five thousand dollars each. These pumps also shut off automatically after 15 seconds of inactivity. Computers can not be accessed. Look for new pumps with keypads on them. Even if stations are MADE to comply I will still go out of my way to do business at places that were honest to start off with.

I will believe that when I see it. nobody is shut down around here and everyone is pumping short as usual.
