After our summer trip to San Miguel de Allende, we headed to another great state park in the southern tip of Nuevo Leon, El Salto. There is only one gas station within 150 kms of Matahuala and Aramberri. There has never been anything in between. Gas is commonly sold from small businesses and homes.
We don't buy it, but when you live on the ranch and your income is limited, you're not going to drive 100 kms to get a tank of gas so that when you return you're less than half full.
It is illegal and I agree with you, but at the same time it is not profitable for a Pemex (that we now know is a franchise business) to supply fuel to places that would leave a station or business at a loss.
