Convenience stores

This entire message board is naive and borderline racist. You have people starting threads after we offered a kid with “(dark skinned)” in parenthesis. It’s embarrassing. It’s almost like the majority of posters have never left Seattle/Western Washington which isn’t exactly the cradle of diversity.

Actually the diversity here is the guessing that goes on with prices if you shop thereLesGrossman said:This entire message board is naive and borderline racist.

There are good and bad experiences. There is a 7-11 in Woodinville on 175th Street that I will never set foot in again. I asked for a receipt and the guy acted like he didn't hear me. I asked for it again, and he took the receipt, crumpled it in his hand, and tossed it at me. He glared at me with eyes that burned with the intensity of a thousand suns.

I learned from Europe that you always know how much something is first before showing your money unless the store is obviously legitimate. I can't stand the attitude that it's all a big mystery and trust us. One Seattle convenience store of the type I mention tried to charge $9.99 for an ordinary quart of oil. It had no price of course until I got to the main counter.DerekJohnson said:There are good and bad experiences. There is a 7-11 in Woodinville on 175th Street that I will never set foot in again.

Anyone with an older car most likely buys oil by the quart. What kind of fop has never bought a quart of oil?
-
I stopped checking oil about a decade ago. Worthless excercise when you run new cars with full synthetic. I always ask the shop to make Sure to check the oil level before draining it @ 25,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first.

Force of habit, even with my new car I still check the oil when I gas up. Not really sure why, it never burns/leaks any oil but I do it anyway. But having driven plenty of older high mileage cars over the years I've bought oil by the quart since I started driving. I have a 4Runner with over 250,000 miles, thing runs like a champ but it burns about half a quart every 500 miles. Oil is cheap, engines not so much.

Okay, you're the kind of fob who most likely drove mommy and daddy's car(s) and who has never worked on your own car. Glad you've established what we're working with here.
