We are out of fuel in Dallas / Ft Worth. The lines here for fuel this Thursday mourning was miles long. It reminded me of the 1974 energy crisis at the fuel pumps. So do not come to Texas for this holiday period. We have no idea how much fuel if any will be available for Friday thru whenever ? As of 1 pm Thursday all fuel was completely gone at the pumps within a 5 mile radius from me. At 6 pm very few could find fuel anywhere in the DFW area. Some azzwipes bizs have way up the fuel prices that they had left today. we heard 9.99 per gallon some paid. And on the local news - people sent pics of the fuel receipts for 6.99 per gallon

That's got to be a jet lower on that motor....no way an prop could throw water like that....reminds me of my jetskiing days, sinking the nose with the tail in the air and blasting friends on the beach!

Yes, I'm sure it's a jet foot on that boat; make sense for the rescues and use it would have.

Yeah this sucks.. the wife and I are gonna get up at like 3:00AM and go try and find some gas. We just bought a house in Frisco and plan to move this weekend and my truck only has a 1/4 tank of gas... Might have to siphon some out of the boat!

^^^ I had the same plan but was going to go to Possum Kingdom tomorrow guess that's out. Yesterday after work it was a full on panic for fuel around here, people acting crazy thanks to the Media hype and them getting fuel even if they didn't need it. This morning was a little better and most in south Fort Worth had it. Hopefully it calms down soon I need to go to the lake..... 1st world problems!
