You wanted to refuel your vehicles — so here it is: a gas station just for you!
[p]You can now refuel your vehicles at the station.[/p][p](Psst... in future updates, you’ll be able to do some shopping there too — but more on that soon! :D)[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/29480609/45d3e0e0c071a41c5773f03186afd6c8374b346e.png"][/img][/p][p]The fuel pump is ready for you — fill up as much as you like! :)[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/29480609/0af208b0bde08def0f2635aa0d8f754d27070c14.png"][/img][/p][p]Mini discount game — if you’re up for it, try hitting the center of the discount bar and rack up as much as you can.

Below are some of the latest changes and fixes — there’s actually much more going on, but we don’t log everything because, frankly, we’re rushing to keep updates coming often.[/p][p][/p][p]Thanks so much for your support and help in developing the game — you are the best Junkmen we know![/p]
