Gas pump/stations of St. Maarten and it’s WOES

 

Hoping the department in charge looks in this regularly and does something about people getting cheated all the time.

My vehicle shows how many more kilometers it will run with remaining gasoline in my tank. I have tried different gas stations and pumps. Just to give you an example, I put in 22 liters of gas, and my vehicle shows an increase of 220 km.

Next time I went to the same establishment but another pump, self-service and put in 22 liters of gas, this time my increase went up by 187 km (which is 33 km than my previous fill). Another time I went to another establishment and put in 22 liters and this time my increase went up to 242 km (higher this time).

Please note it’s the same vehicle, and all gas was put in during morning hours (6.30 AM to 7 A.M).

This is to let the public know how some stations provide more gas for the value, versus some stations where it’s less.

Merry Christmas
Thawani
