Specifically thinking of stuff that make your life better in the long run but all kinds of answers are welcome!

I've recently learnt about lifetraps and it's made a huge positive impact on how I view myself and my relationships

The gas gauge tells you which side the filler is at on a vehicle.

Most but not all sadly.

I've never seen a cat where this is not the case. It's great when it's time to top off the rental car.

I just took my cat to the petrol station to give it a try, and have to report that not only does she not have any indicators like this, she also was vehemently opposed to being refuelled and scratched me up badly.

Must be one of those electric cats then.

A friend of mine took their cat to the gas station, after refuelling the cat took a couple of steps and dropped on the floor. I was like "Damn, already out of fuel? What did you say the milage was?"

On most newer cars.

[–] booty@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

I've had it on every car I've owned since 1990. So, newer might be relative here.

Newer?? How old are your cars???
