I think that I mentioned this in an earlier post. Since Ethanol combines easily with water, any water in the storage tank is going to wind up in someones tank. And what's to stop sellers from adding a few gallons of water to their tanks once in a while....... At $4.00 per gallon, it's all profit.

That's all well and good, but I was physically there. I made the reservation for the 31. If I had shown up with the 20, they would have made me pay again.

I understand that they're there to make money. But when you have to make it by selling 200% of something, I have to cry foul.
