    Tesla still misleading prices their cars with a "gas savings" of ~$4300... when gas bottoms out it might be more expensive to fill up with electricity.

    In today's climate, that's a bad thing?

    A last resort "TAKE EM ALL OUT WITH ME" option.

    Store it where? The reason the price has gone to zero is that the storage is full already.

    Yeah, good points i wasnt thinking off. Does diesel have a longer shelf life? I have had this idea for al ong time. A ma and pa construction company I worked ofr in NY did that out of his home. couple acres and he had some heavy equipment. we would put in residential waterlines, septic tanks etc. He had a huge tank and had it filled up ever so often and I would pump from that to fill up the machinery. Figured, I could do the same for gas.

    I know he burned through his quick though. So not sure if it has a longer shelf lie or not compared to gas.

    I see what you are saying now. Pump it out, pump it back into the ground in some other spot, someplace where oil had been extracted in the past?

    But this can't be happening anyway, because our Dear Leader recently negotiated a truce between Saudi Arabia and Russia so that oil prices would rise.
    Therefore, this stuff about $0 oil is FAKE NEWS!

    The barrel is worth more than the oil and toilet paper will rival gold for pound for pound value!

    No, but if you want to sell me the gas that's in your truck, I'll take $36 for it. That's my final offer.
