While on the subject of gas, where do most of you go to fill up? I go to shell. I hear they have the highest quality fuel and their pumps are usually the nicest (at least in my area).

What's your gas station of choice?

once i saw same big tanker filling up cheron and mobil station on chapman & brookhurst...

i think station is just using franchised name but get the fuel from other 3rd party company... i'm probably wrong...

anyways.. my favorite is texaco.. i think they have the highest quality.

Shell. BTW, don't buy ARCO gas. They blend their own gas refined at the Carson refinery with several brands of independent gas. The quality control is terrible. That's why ARCO gas is so cheap. I once did marketing research for ARCO. I could tell you some stories.
