    Santa Clara. Palo Alto. Mountain View. All looking. Santa Clara pays CSOs 75-80. Sworn Officers in their first year don’t so so well. But afterwards, they are one of the best paying agencies.

    I didn't follow up because I felt it wasn't really worth bothering him about it. It's a secondhand DIY kit. I'll figure something out.

    Cool. I can save money. I’ll probably see 5k rpm maybe 5 seconds every year. So yes, racecar.

    That will likely be the case when I get my supercharger and headers on, but after a week or two I’ll probably go back to driving like grandpa.

    Fear not. When I mash the throttle I usually have a bottle of Techron in the tank. Double duty - bringing smiles and clean innards.

    You should still be able to get Chevron gas without being a Safeway member. That's all I use and I'm not a member. I know people talk all day about how every gas station uses the same fuel and shit, but I'm convinced Chevron uses some magical stuff in their fuel. Shell is a close second... but Chevy Chevron is numero uno to me.

    The base product is the same. But the additive packages are different. Each one have their own cleaning stuff though who knows which is "better".

    I'll stick with what I know works. If Chevron does me dirty at some point down the road, I'll be more than happy switching to another fuel brand. Lol.

    I agree I prefer chevron I used to only go to Valero because it was right next to me and now that i go to the chevron it is a world of difference
    although i will go to safeway or costco given the opportunity because $$$

    Find a family member that shops there. Most older folks don't use the rewards. I use my dad's when mine are gone..
