Freestate Gas Station on Rockville Pike in MD

Anybody use their gas? They always have the cheapest gas prices I've seen anywhere and in this time of rising gas prices I've considered them as an option. However, I've always been suspect of their quality and wonder how they can sell gas so cheaply. Anyone here been brave enough to use them before? Any reason not to?

The quality of the gas is fine, they just do not accept credit cards at all -- Cash only and long lines.

yeah they are cheap because they accept cash only, hence one less overhead to add to sale price.

that said, Rockville gas prices are ridiculous! that's one redeeming quality about living out in the boonies in northern VA, gas price is about 20-30 cents cheaper compared to Rockville :p

up until last week I could still get premium for under $2

Now my station is up to 2.17, which is still less than the 2.23-2.29 I see at other stations around. And it's a Chevron! Not even one of the cheap no-name stations (which are even cheaper )

Fightin' back

Well, my RX-8 has a full tank of gas and I was lucky to get it before the price hikes today :D . It's kind of moot though since I started riding my bike to work today . Figure I could save some gas, save the environment and get healthier too. Was thinking about doing this a long time ago. Nothing like a healthy (no pun intended) dose of inflation to get you moving.

Atleast my baby is safe and sound in the garage at home, freshly waxed and safe from the elements. :p
