The best Indicator

We all have been driving for many years... I would think I should have noticed the little secret on my dashboard that was staring me in the face the whole time...I didn't...and I bet you didn't either....

Have you ever borrowed a car and when arriving at the gas station wondered...mmm, which side is the gas filler cap?

My normal solution was to stick my head out the window, strain my neck and look, try to see in the side mirrors or even get out of the car!

Well here is a little secret so you will no longer look like Ace Ventura on your way to the gas station or pu t your neck at risk of discomfort or injury.

If you look at your gas gauge, you will see a small icon of a gas pump. The handle of the gas pump will extend out on either the left or right side of the gas pump.

If your tank is on the left, the hose will be on the left? If your tank is on the right, the hose will be on the right (see photo). It is that simple!



Don't feel dumb, just go out and share one of the world's best kept auto secret with your friends.

Cheers!

Hmm...I would say that this does not apply to my BMW, but I really know what you're talking about.

I think you forgot to mention your Porsche 911 Carrera BiTurbo and both white and black colored Lamborghini Countach...

Indeed, but I was concerned about being overly pretentious.

A Brazilian student has sold her virginity in an online auction for US$780,000 as part of a documentary organized by an Australian filmmaker, although a man who did the same only fetched US$3,000.
