It is my understanding that *all* Mobil stations in the US provide air at no charge as company policy supposedly dictates. It is a quote from a local dealer and it is backed up by my local experience only (many local Mobil stations, all with free air). If it is found to be true by other listees, it's just one more reason to buy gas at Mobil, in addition to clean restrooms and "Speedpass"! Obligatory Vanagon Content: I filled up my tires for free today at a Mobil station after retrieving my Westy from her winter purgatory! Nice to be back on the road in the Westy. Wave if you're in the neighborhood! -- Melissa Mourkas 81 Westy |
