That makes 4 of us in the area. This could be the early stages of something interesting. If a few Z enthusiasts wanted to meet once in Ventnor, Atlantic City, etc. and see where it goes from there, I'd be interested. If there's more interest, I'll start a separate post.

No they want to keep as many jobs available as they can.

Sounds good to me!

Also you guys need to do what I do. Pull up get out of the car even before opening the tank. Than open it stand RIGHT NEXT TO THE TANK. And if they slam it in or do something wrong say something about it. I do not drive a nice sports car but I want respect for my car. Than after they d it right for a while and you correct what they do wrong you throw them a tip here and there.

LOL!
It's all good, I wouldn't have known either if I didn't fill up my own gas.

Is there price difference between self and full service ? I love the full service idea because we pay the same price as the rest of the country and still get full service

In freezing winter or scorching summer heat, we don't have to get out of our cars

Yes, that was me heading home. I agree...that car in that color looks like nothing else on the road. I wasn't sure what was coming at me at first, but got $#!+faced when I realized what I was seeing.

I felt the exact same way. At first I was like, wow that car looks great. As I was getting closer, I realized it's a Blue 370Z! I was like

. Did you do anything to your car yet?

Yea, It's the same price but at least I have the right gas in the tank and no gas spill on the fender

Quite a few gas stations here don't even have a Full Service side, It's actually rare to see now.

Dude, tell me about it! When I had the 350Z, this idiot attendant put 87 in my tank even I told him 6 times "93 Premium please". After about 10 gallons, I happen to look at the meter and saw it. I immediately yelled at him to stop the pump and asked him to fill up the rest with 93. From that incident, I DO NOT look away until the attendant started the pump! I still do this everytime. I think I really wouldn't mind self service as I will be much more careful filling up my car. Too bad, it's illegal (I think) in New Jersery

The only thing I have done to it since the filters is put it on a steady diet of gas from PA. I’ve gone back and forth on a few things (cat-back exhaust and/or HFCs, wheels, rear fog light, etc.), but it will probably be a while before I do anything significant.
