Who Knew??

WHO KNEW THIS???
Have you ever rented or borrowed a car and when arriving at the gas station wondered...mmm, which side is the gas filler cap? My normal solution was to stick my head out the window, strain my neck and look, try to see in the side mirrors or even get out of the car! Well ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to share with you my little secret so you will no longer look like Ace Ventura on your way to the gas station or put your neck at risk of discomfort or injury. If you look at your gas gauge, you will see a small icon of a gas pump? The handle of the gas pump will extend out on either the left or right side of the gas pump? If your tank is on the left, the handle will be on the left? If your tank is on the right, the handle will be on the right (see photo). It is that simple!

Don't feel dumb, just go out and share the world's best kept auto secret with your friends.

Oh my gosh!! No way! Do you know that I deal with this very issue on a weekly basis?? Ray and I are always switching back and forth between our two vehicles. Every time I go to fill up, I have to rack my brain to remember which side to pull up to the pump on! Its different for both cars!!!! you are a gem!

I know! I can never remember when I'm in Isaac's truck, which is lame, because I drive it often enough. And I will ALWAYS pull up on the wrong side before I realize it. I love this piece of information!
