Alabama competitor sues Texas' Buc-ees for allegedly pricing gas too low
Less than a month after the first Buc-ee's outside of Texas opened in Alabama, the convenience store is facing a lawsuit claiming gas prices at the new location are unfairly low, according to the petition filed in federal court last week
Oasis Travel Center, LLC, claims in the lawsuit that the Alabama store's gas prices are "predatory" and harmful toward its business. The travel center appears to be located about four miles east of the new Buc-ee's location in Baldwin County, along Interstate 10 and Country Road 64.
The lawsuit claims the store violated the Alabama Motor Fuel Marketing Act by selling gas below the threshold imposed by the law. The complaint says the store opened on Jan. 21 offering gas at $1.79 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline. Since then, prices for regular gas at the store have fluctuated between $1.79 and $1.87, the lawsuit says.
The lawsuit also highlighted the sale of non-ethanol "Plus" gasoline at $1.93 per gallon.

I don't wear American flag pins either.
and the oldest, a rare Honda CB1000 10 speed, is 35 years old. I'm sure my Rav4 would be fine with the ethanol gasoline, but I am stubborn in my old age. 
And, I will never, ever use ethanol in my small engines or boat motor. That's just me. 
And speaking of small engines and ethanol, I always thought it was the rubber that cause the issue. I didn't know it was an aluminum problem also.
