Subject: RE: gas on the coastHaving been there and speaking to my in-laws, do NOT go to Jackson ... there simply is no gas there. Mobile might be a different story as they were not hit as hard and I-10 isn't as accessible as I-20 (e.g. you cannot go through New Orleans so there will not be as much traffic ).
I found gas more readiliy available the further I got from Jackson - shoot, it was available w/out long lines in Meridian. I eventually stopped outside of Eutaw, AL and paid $2.49/gallon - the owner refused to price gouge ... and refused to allow people to fill up beyond a normal tankful b/c folks were selling 5 gal jerry cans for $50.00 on the street.
Good luck to your brother! |
