Using Sta-bil and Ethanol free gas is the key.

Yep, that’s what I do. Buccees in Denton has Ethanol free gas, but it’s pricey. However, if I need it 6 months from now in an emergency, it’s not so pricey.

Re: Something else about the recent blackouts
One other thing you might want to consider stocking is liquor. Not necessarily for consuming, but for trading, for gas, food, medical supplies, etc...
We filled up both cars before the freeze, also,stocked up on food at the store. One thing I did not plan for was the power outage. I do have a small generator, but never had to use it. Never lost power. But I have not started it in years, so need to check it out to make sure it is operational and also purchase a larger one. Also stocked up on gas, about 17 gallons in containers, but that was for the autos, not the generator. Yesterday I purchased a siphon kit in case I need to use car gas for a generator.
Just added more drinking water, now have about 75 gallons. Need to add more. My next project will be adding a transfer switch or similar to connect a generator to the house.
So, still have lots of things to add, fix, think about. It’s an ongoing project.
