Wow people are harsh - car washes, bathrooms? I go to a gas station for one thing - gas. And maybe clean off bug splatter if I've been offroading my passenger car through the bug ridden wilderness.
Station is on a corner - convenient, just watch for people using it as a shortcut - those heading west along Hwy 7 during morning rush hour fly through here to avoid the left turn onto Commerce Valley.
General gripes I always have - the pumps are too slow and don't allow you to lock them in place (some kind of safety law). In contrast, most places in the 'states have much faster pumps and allow you to lock the trigger. Here, only full serve attendants get that privilege. Not a big deal except when it's frickin 20 below in the middle of winter and you need to keep alternating hands to keep one warm while the other holds the handle..
One other gripe - the pay-at-the-pump now takes chip cards, which locks your card in and makes you enter a PIN. Another nuisance especially when it's cold out. Maybe I'll just get one of their Speedpass things. Well played, Esso.
While I'm ranting, people - you can hook up complex networking setups in your homes and yet you can't pay at the pump? What gives? Why do more than half of people still go inside to pay? Sheesh..
Ok I'm done. Rating is based on the locking card slot, the slow pumps, and high markups on Supreme level gas. I guess if you care for fancy-pants convenience stores, this one doesn't have one - just a small shack - so you're not going to be able to shave your legs and reapply your makeup in their facilities here. Save that for while you're driving - you know who you are - I'm the guy giving you dirty looks.. :) read more
