I am not retarded, my car takes diesel!

I left work today at 3 so I could drive to Ballard and see my massage therapist. I had plenty of time to get there but I had to stop at the gas station first because I was nearly out of gas. I put in the pump and started it and it was going very slow. Remembering that it is cold out and diesel tends to gel up a bit, I got in my car to wait it out.

I am shocked no one has asked me about the diesel yet. I figured there were a lot of stupid people so someone would ask... maybe it'll be my turn soon.

I've had Stella for 9 months now and this was the first time. I was worried I would accidentally put in 87 octane instead of diesel but I've done well!

My other rant on using diesel is that it isn't offered at all pump islands so when a gas station is busy, all of the cars at the diesel islands are using gasoline but the non diesel islands are empty. It's so frustrating but no one really thinks about it so IDK. I think I am going to have Zach start getting gas for my car because I am tired of doing it and getting grumpy.

I feel your pain. I have to assure people that I am not retarded on a daily basis.

i didn't really think it was THAT uncommon for a car to take diesel.

Where was this gas station?

That is really sucky of them to have treated you like that.

I'm sorry :(

It was the Shell off of the 195th street exit in Bothell. Should have gotten gas yesterday evening at my normal Shell station near my house, lesson learned!
