Gas Tip O Da Day

By -
If you find yourself traveling late at night in a rural area and suddenly the fuel light glaring on the dash board and you think "Hmm, bet nothing is open around here and I am not quite to my destination. What should I do?" Even if the lights are off, and you're in the middle of nowhere, you might think that all hope is lost and you're going to be napping in your car that night. Well, keep in mind that if you have a credit card, you can successfully use the pump even when the gas station is closed assuming the gas station has the pay at the pump capabilities. It is brilliant!

That is so good to know! Thanks for the great tip...I try not to let my gas gauge get below 1/4 of a tank when I'm driving at night or on a trip but sometimes you never know...

Yah, Lalah, I'm with you...never go below 1/4. If it's snowing, stay above 1/2, just incase you get stuck in traffic for hours. But yeah, that's a great thing to know. No more worries when you're driving all night!

The other competitor was "HD DVD", not to be confused with regular "DVD" that we know and love. This whole deal was just what would be the new standard for HD movies. Regular old DVD will still be with us for many years to come for sure, but if you want to watch the latest movies on your big widescreen TV, then you might want to consider Blu-Ray as it will take advantage of every last pixel.
