Due to work and stuff that's been going on lately I've been putting AAFES gas in my car to get back and forth to the ESSO. All of a sudden my car started bogging and running funny. WTF!

Yep, found that out too. I think they add water to make it last longer. AAFES will find any way to screw you, not matter what the case.

What's up with the 'hose'power, man? I can't get that many hos with my car. They wife don't like it either...

I have a problem with the gas too. It turns on my check engine light. It goes off on the second tank of gas fromm Esso. If you add too many additives, it may cause problems with the obd2 cars. Anyone else with gas problems? Thats gasoline :lol:

I've had the same problem except for here in Wiesbaden. I always put in the 93 stuff. Aafes is known around the world for having problems with their gas. I do believe it's not the supplier but the tanks (at Aafes) that is the problem, just my $.02.

If you haven't heard by now, AAFES raised their gas prices 0.14 cents today. Doesn't that make you happy.

I guess that the Wiesbaden 24hr gas station doesn't know that, or atleast yesterday they didn't when I filled up. That really suxs, I gotta go fill up the wifes truck today :( . I wish I would of known it was going up, I would of bought a truck load of coupons.
