Thank you for that information Roger as I am currently down in Rotonda with a Budget car on Silver Option. I always fill up at exit 26B on 275 heading north to Tampa; the car registers full when I reach the airport, I have never been charged for fuel.

However 26B to TPA is about 20 miles and in view of your comments I would appreciate anyone who travels up from the south to let me know where a gas station near TPA is situated that isn't going to get me off the straight and narrow!!
