Costco is on a HOT seat in the Metro ATL area: Bad Gasoline!

I'm a died in the wool Costco fan.
They use Top Tier fuel and their gas stations always have huge lines because they can be as much as 15 cents/gal cheaper than the next cheapest station.
Based on how much fuel they sell I can't imagine how many complaints they would receive if they were indeed pumping "bad gas". Thousands. Not 3 or 4.
Now, maybe these folks were the unlucky ones that the tanks reached empty on or something? Or maybe the water separation filters were failing (is that a thing?) I'm no gas pump expert but I'm sure anything can happen.
Anyway, I'll still be using it.

Same here, we buy almost everything at Costco. They are 100% pro customer retailer… The news seems a bit fishy….
Never been in a Costco so I'm good
Think DMV...miserable
Friday night they were selling for 2.59 in Athens. Other stores in the area were 2.89 ro 2.99 a gallon
And we’re still shopping for gas, how proletariat we schmucks are?
I was running a set route every night for some time. Consistently the cheaper “points” brand of like ingles, Walmart, and Kroger got 1.5-2mpg less mileage than the name brand stations. I would assume it’s the same for Costco.And my wifey and I love the discount they have on the gas in there. We may stick with someone else now…
I also don’t trust the no name stations.
I did this for two years, same for my Suburban, Hemi Dakota, and a Ram 1500.
