Unbelievable

Turns out we get slammed even worse than we KNEW at the pump in the summer.
Just a tidbit of what the L.A. Times has to say:

Here's another way you're getting pinched at the pump: Paying for, say, five gallons of fuel doesn't mean you're getting a full five gallons.

Fuel expands when temperatures rise. And because gasoline station nozzles don't adjust for the change, motorists and truckers end up with less of the energy that keeps engines humming.

The overcharge is rampant, legal and hard for consumers to spot. But it's no secret. Oil companies acknowledge it and regulators allow it. One company developed a device to fix the disparity but shelved the product after dealers resisted.
