If you have not experienced the lines for gas at an Oregon Costco, you've really missed out. End of an era.
People in Oregon really don't believe me when I saw I never waiting in line for gas when I lived in other states.
Yup, only place I've ever waited for gas (outside of a hurricane or blizzard being imminent) is in NJ. Then they always try to divert me into a lane with the pump on the wrong side which I'll have none of because I know they'll just drag a dirty rubber hose across my paint, it's bad enough that they touch my car at all. (Though I realize that's mostly a me issue)
oh no I'm right there with you. I used to try to avoid having to stop for gas in NJ or OR at all costs until I got a car that wants 93, but we only have 91 in CA but they have 92 in OR so I just deal with it (it gets noticeably better fuel economy).
