Mechanical Pumps Can't Handle $4 Per Gallon Gas

He said if gas hits $6 per gallon, he may have to get new pumps.

New pumps can cost up to $15,000 each and refurbished ones an upwards of $3,000.

In the meantime, Kozikowski said his station has found a way to adapt.

He said the current price for diesel is $4.68 per gallon so the station knocked the price on the pump to $2.34. When the customer goes to pay for the fuel, they double the final total. - http://www.wfsb.com/news/16257081/detail.html

I always thought that anything else than fuel would still cost an arm and a leg because the big 'companies' would control it anyway.
But what about WATER ?

We need this!
