...has suddenly appeared, like a chrysalis in the midst of the old semi-construction just before the 'new' carwash.

Does Sosua really need a second Bomba?

Lukoil has arrived!

Does it matter? One could ask the same about a new restaurant or hotel. If it not needed. The owners will soon find out ... Th hard way.

Second Bomba?

Does Sosua really need a second Bomba?
Pienso que si. Porque ahora tenemos Texaco (1), Coastal/Ancla (2) y tambien una en Terremar (3) y una frente al aguaparque (4). Entonces, pienso yo, la pregunta es, si Sosua necisita una quinto.

So are we talking 'bomba' or 'planta' ?? ...... bomba serves gasoline and planta serves propane gas.......
@cajou - frente aguaparque es la bomba Shell

Yes, I now see that it is in fact a planta not a bomba.

Off-topic
As for pizza <way off-topic> have you tried Albertos (round the corner from caipirinha). Ok, so it's not exactly redolent of Napoli, but still the best in sosua

Off topic, I don't know where Albertos or Caipiranha are located so no, I have not tried Alberto's pizza. As for propane or gasoline stations, the more the merrier since it is easier to find a place to fill up.

anyhow it was hidden behind the wall near where the old gym is, the wall was later knocked down to reveal the secret building of the gas/propane station behind it

Albertos is opposite Bologna, small place. (caipirinha is the 24hr restaurant)

for years i only went to Coastal, because of the good experience but since a while now a guy works there and tries to cheat in different ways.
usually this dude works on the first filling station (next to the street). I know 2 other persons he tried the same game too,

well you should make sure the owner hears about it. Im sure he would want to know about this.

How has he tried to cheat you?


charges to credit card - instead charging 3,400 pesos he put 4,300 pesos (at night it can be easily overseen) and when claimed the error he has the 900 pesos difference already in a separate pocket. not only happened to me and not only once.....
my son's car only takes 1,900 pesos when total empty and max 2,000 pesos when you really squeeze in the last drop; the employee put the nozzle back on the hook and immediately put the level up that the amount is reset to zero, and then he was asking 2,300 pesos!!!
Well for that particular car we bought gasoline there twice a week before.... now not anymore!
He was cleaning the windshield of my friends car, when she told him tank full please.... well when he finished he asked for money for cleaning the windshield, he was asking 200 pesos!!!

For years the service was perfect, but now i rather buy gasoline at Shell than getting into stupid discussion with a crook. If you know the owner, please tell him. Believe me i am not the only one who stopped going there.
