You are missing the point. Car gas tanks are storage tanks in case you need gas for a generator. If power goes out, you won't be able to buy any gasoline until power is restored. Also, make sure you have plenty of cash since ATM's won't work, stores will be closed etc with a power loss. Been down this path a couple times before
