Trivia
- In mid-may of 2007, gas prices hit a point where people with gas tanks larger than about 14 gallons started reaching a $50 limit placed on gas pumps at some gas stations. Customers would have to complete one transaction, and start another to completely fill up. Some credit cards like Mastercard have a $75 limit instead. As the pump approaches $50, it usually just slows down and hits $50 exactly, not allowing a customer to go over. [1]
