Discount gas vs. major chain station's gas?

Pay at the pump is one of the greatest things ever.

i will say my local stations between the 2 I buy where I like the people that own and run it.

The same family since I moved here in the late eighties

 

Dude , put a box of gloves in your truck. Don’t be Karen.

 

I'd rather not wash my hands after peeing in a gas station bathroom, than touch a gas station sink. I don't know about you, but I don't typically pee on my hands, and even if I did, pee is sterile. You can't say the same for the surfaces in a gas station bathroom, lol

 

That's why I wash my hands, dry, then turn off sink and open door with same paper towel.

 

its difficult when all they have are 'environmentally friendly' air dryers and trying to open the door without hands

 

Thats what the pinky hook with your shirt over your hand is for.

 

Just pee on the side of the building while your fuel pumps. Stay classy

 

I pee in the windshield washing bucket.

1) it's closer, I don't have to walk all the way over to the building

2) it can't do a worse job at cleaning windows than the dirty, soap-less water that's already in the bucket.

 

Why you in the bathroom trying to wash something you ain't got?

 

Cant argue with this logic

 

I am the type to wash my hands before going to the bathroom.

Quite embarrassing trying to get the grease off the little head while people are watching they just get the wrong idea .

 

Shake it more than 3 times you're just playing with it.

 

Y'all need some of these gas stations from Tejas,, spotless, good food, decent prices, take the tour of the inside if I did this right. Probably didn't though.

washing before and after is sound strategy i adhere to as well, never know who or whom touched that fuel handle last

153c fillUp today @ shell with a working restroom!, hot Dog the taco is fully enjoying this inexpensive fuel after 15 years of much much more
that premium stuff was running 233c so i went the other route

 

I do not know why you guys are worried about dirty gas station bathrooms.
I worked as an oncall tech for
My friends commercial electrical, refrigeration and cooling business in some of the best restaurants in a major city. You would be horrified if you saw what went on in the restaurant kitchens. One of the wildest things I saw was a worker using the tub that was used for floor mops to make egg roll stuffing after just taking the mops out and not cleaning the tub.

 

That's not a truck stop...
(in an Australian accent) "This is a truck stop.

This guy I knew used to make the house salad dressing in the dirty dish sink. Every body raved how great it was . Thankfully they have been closed over 25 years now.

 

They're not truck stops they're gas stations, with Texas bar -b -q inside

 

2003....96,000 miles....7-11 gas used always...20Mpg. City. Pics showing valves using their gas and the other guys valves. It's all advertising bunk. My 2003's engine was designed for and recommends regular octane unleaded gasoline. I bet my valves don't need grinding down. I'm getting the expected gas mileage of my 2003. I guess there are stations to be avoided. Ones that don't get a lot of business. Older stations that need tanks dug up and replaced.

 

I used to go to Rudy's BBQ in some of the gas stations around El Paso. Loved it.
