An extract from Phoenix Travel Club (USA) 2008 newsletter.
"Only buy or fill up your car, RV or
whatever in the early morning when the ground
temperature is at its coolest. Since service stations have
their storage tanks buried below ground, the colder the
ground, the denser the gasoline. When it gets warmer the
gasoline expands, so in the afternoon, or when it warms
up, your gallon is not exactly a full gallon. A 1-degree
change in temperature is a big deal."
