Whenever I'm in a crunch to get gas and Costco is closed, I try to go to a Chevron because, well... Techron. Maybe it's not true what they say about Techron but hey, I'm a sucker for advertising. That and knowing that some independent gas stations use Chevron gas to clean out their systems.
This station is close to the house which is always a plus, 2.3 miles to be semi-exact, and it's open past the time that Costco is. Hey, I'm easy to please. The best part is that they have among the cheaper gas in the area for a Chevron. I still remember my first time coming to Poway (before I moved here). I thought to myself, "Man! If I live here, they've got cheap gas!!!" And here I am... Buying "cheap" gas from Chevron late at night. My only gripe is that they did that crappy thing of charging 9 cents more for Credit Cards. Seriously dude? Here's a tip. Use AMEX to screw with the vendors. AMEX takes the most money.
TL:DR - Cheapish gas but boo to upped credit card price. read more
