I'm still mad they removed all of the free air pumps. I used to check my tire pressure every time I filled up.

Yeah! Chevron used to have free air pumps and now they are slowly being pay-per-use!

I think Costco has a free air pump near the tire centre, but good luck getting there during the day (unless you're Badhobz.)

Carbs don't like ethanol. Have to be much more dilligent in draining my boat motor, power washer, lawn mower, leaf blower, and string trimmer over the winter. Fuck Ethanol. Corn should be for eating, not turning into fuel.

Bad for fuel lines too. It eats them and potentially damaging the fuel pump if you let it sit in ethanol for long periods of time.

yeah I had a bad experience with ethanol-ridden gas on my old Vespa P90. That was a total mess. On modern cars, its generally (emphasis on generally) okay.

You really don't have this problem with the GTI tho.. it's a good problem to have in the GTI...

that said Chevron 94 sucks LOL. Shell 93 ftw.

Point about the fuel lines is true tho. Short term testing showed I can run up to E25-E30 with no issues.

I recall reading an announcement (I think here on RS?) that the gas companies were slowly introducing it across the country. I personally haven't seen it here in the GTA, but maybe that's because I pretend I don't see the total amount when filling up premium on the Boxster.

Nobody gives a nazi shit about that dumpster fire, I’m concerned about the ratrolla. She doesn’t get driven that much and now she’s filled full of corn juice that likes to rot out everything.

Paying for air is an example of the late stage capitalism bullshit that grinds my gears to no end.

It's fucking air, how have we gone decades with it being free, and now suddenly gas stations want to charge for it? It should be a basic feature available, especially given you're filling up.

What's next, a surcharge on that dirty ass squeegee?

Sadly Vancouver city gas stations all have pay air pumps.
I just go next door to Burnaby, it's still free there.

Air compressors are 400$ for the cheapest one, add in a pay feature, that silver box around it, now your at 2000$.

People dont give a shit about the hoses and ends, leave them out, drive over them, steal them, break them.

Dont forget the cost of running power to it out there.

2000 esso stations in canada, at 5k per unit build cost, thats one less vacation home for a VP

Your esso stonk depends on profits, and the only profits of free air are negative
