Can you relate to this?

In my home town when I was a kid, you could buy gas for 26 cents a gallon forever, and when we went to Texas, in Gila Bend Arizona they usually had gas wars that would rive it down to 17 cents a gallon. I'm old. It was commonplace to pull in and get full service and ask for a buck or two worths of gas and get you oil check and air in your tires.

I had an uncle that had a station in Texas and if you wanted an oil change there was no labor charge at his station, you just paid for the oil and the filter.
