Default Cancel Weekend Road Trip?

We're planning to go from West Palm to Tampa tomorrow morning. Any reason not to go?

Any gas shortages that anyone here knows about along Hwy 60 or in the Brandon/Tampa area?

We want to go, but don't want to be stuck

I know dude, thought of that, but the SUV has no trunk and we didn't want to get by gasoline fumes on the 3 hour drive.

But heck, we're going!

As of 9:00pm, the Mobile at Busch Blvd and 46th St has no gas. This is one block east of Busch gardens. The manager there said that Tampa has no gas and the stations are empty. I hope this isn't true, I need gas!
