A few years ago when we had a rare ice storm here, went thru over 100 gallons of 'strategic reserve' gasoline.
Suburban area, but all gas stations down also, none had emergency power!

I had relatives from 15 mi away drive over to get 10 gal of gas at a time, AND to top off their cars. 6 different cars can go thru 100 gal of gas real quick, not to mention the small generators.

Now I keep 150 gal of gasoline and 70 gal of diesel in sealed bbls in a concrete shed with concrete curbs in case of any leaks. Probably never need it now ?
