    Slow trucks stay right, use your mirrors before pulling out to pass, Dont Assume the guy your cutting off is empty.

    Or yeah fuel islands are not parking places. Fuel then PARK IT. Then take a bath if not for yourself, do it for all of mankind.

    Happy New Year.

    That is so simple that it will overwhelm and confuse those that it is most applicable to. Darn. Great advice for the new year. Thanks.

    So says the hypocrite who takes pictures of his truck on the fuel island. Practice what you preach, and stop wasting the precious bandwidth of this awesome forum on foolish threads.
    Also what's up with the old guys always being in such a hurry. Death can't come quick enough I guess.

    I was fueling, I dont park on fuel island, ever. If Im traveling at legal speeds and you can not stay to the right, Simple. If your done fueling move. It is not tough. Maybe too complicated for some to understand. Park where you want, but be sure to check your truck, i have seen lots of stuff in the last 30 years. Would hate to see anything happen because a truck was left unattended. Also notice that the fuel islands on both sides are empty, so I am not holding up any other drivers because I took a picture while fueling.

    As far as death, dont worry about it, Im good when it comes. Cant Fix Stupid, Best Quote Ever, Thanks Larry.

    And after all of about 10 minutes, these requests will be forgotten. Heck, it is already the 3rd day of the new year, and I already forget what I wanted to remember. What's this thread about again?
