Maybe in theory but it's not possible. Let's say everyone who had the option participated. We all fill up on the 18th so the reserve for that day is dimished. We don't buy gas on the 19th so the reserve builds back up. Over the two day period there is still the same amount of gas purchased. To even make a dent would require that not only do you not buy, you use one less day's worth of gas.
In the mean time, businesses that need to purchase
gas daily or multiple times a day decline to participate. You still have airlines flying, truckers trucking, boats sailing, etc. A nationwide boycott just doesn't seem realistic.
