Default I'm lost, sorta

Hi guys, I'm in a RV park, cost $32.00 to spend the night in my 40 year old tent trailer, I thought Motel 6 made its name for $6.00 a night. Thats old news, having a great time. Haven't got out the GPS to position my self exactly. Spent the first day driving with no cell phone coverage, gotta love the AT&T dead zone leader. Heading toward Kennewich Wa.,to see daughter and family, its been 18 months. Not driving my F150, didn't want to tax the old 215K girl with the trailer, so its up to the 5.0L 96 Explorer. Each fill up has exceded 15 MPG, so whats with the 85 octane offered in northern Nevada?

Oh yeah, the attendant startled me as I pulled in. I haven't seen full service for probably 30 years. They say that Oregon is the only state that does the full service.

I thought New Jersey was the only state you couldn't pump your own gas. I've never been to Oregon, but I know for a fact you can't in jersey

I drove from GA to NJ last year and did not know this. Every time I got gas in NJ, a Towel-Head pumped it (for real I'm not lying). At one place the Towel Head got offended because I started pumping it without his "help". What a fracking joke.

I doubt it's them thinking you are incapable of pumping gasoline so much as them trying to avoid a hefty fine. I don't like it either...the station owner could probably sell gas cheaper if they didn't have to pay attendants.

Wasn't talking about the attendents themselves. The law itself is what ibwas talking about.
