OMG

WHY NOT??!! I filled up my dad's V70R Friday because I used it, and the tanker truck was filling up the tanks before and durring my fill up!

:o :o :o :o

nothing major to worry about, it's just that all the dirt that settles on the bottom of the fuel tank at the gas station gets stirred up in the gas and if you're pumping at the same time some of that is going into your tank. it's more of a precaution to make sure no extra dirt is going into your tank rather than actually preventing something from braking or clogging because of it. I wouldn't worry about it.

they are #1 in money makin' not necessarily quality but if we are going to try to figure out who makes the best gasoline we'd just be splitting hairs. as long as you don't fill up when the gas truck is refilling the gas station's tanks your good.

ive always filled up at the Mobil station near my house. they usually have the best prices. and they have 92 or 93 octane, i forget.

but yes all gas is pretty much the same. it has to be because of how its shipped, which is via pipeline. so basically if BP puts X amount of gasoline into the pipeline system in TX, they can take out X amount in MA. the only difference is the additives each company puts in the gasoline before they ship it off to the stations. if that all makes sense...

Ha, I noticed the big Corn Ethanol label on the pump when I was filling up. Mostly because the pump was running OMG SO SLOW which is probably because the tanks were almost empty. This was at a Chevron station. My parents are Chevron only and have had the same credit card accounts since the 70's living in California. :rolleyes:

I have an ExxonMobil credit card, mostly cause their gas is usually a penny cheaper than Chevron, they have a mini Nathan's hotdog area, a huge Slurpee machine, an awesome Nacho factory thing, they have cold Clearly Canadian and Tab, and I like the coin-op car wash that's next to it. If you fill up with premium you get 10 min free at the carwash. :D

*yawn*

what a quick weekend, I even had Friday off and I feel like I hardly had a weekend

+10000.

Though it's probably because I had 2 essays to write... and Michelle and I went out and got an 8 week old kitten on Sunday... that little sucker has me exhausted right now. :lol::lol:

And one thing I found odd... the woman at the petstore said to leave him (the cat) in the bathroom for a couple days and just peak in to see how he's doing.

Screw that approach, we took him into the living room, let him run and explore all around her apartment, and he's been ecstatic. Already knows exactly where his litter box is and has used it perfectly a few times. Slept with us last night and even let us wake up slowly this morning... he's got such a great demeanor... really liking the little guy, we called him Sloan.

Will try to get a picture up today :lol:
