I was taking my 190E to the gas station today when I noticed that all the pumps were full, except one but I had to back in to take it. I noticed that there was a newer Impala at the pump right next to mine with the guy frantically trying to get his credit card to work or something. I couldn't tell if he was trying to get it to cancel, because this pump was for diesel only, but once he made a grab for the nozzle I knew exactly what he was about to do. Yup, he was about to put diesel in his new Impala. Nice job buddy!

After informing him that he was at the diesel pump, I was shocked to hear him say, "Yes I am aware that this is diesel" to which I said "But you can't put diesel in a gasoline car, you won't go very far!" His response? "This is a flex fuel car, I can run diesel or gasoline in it, it doesn't matter". I was absolutely floored. It was hard not to laugh at this guy! After a few minutes of explaining to him that flex fuel does NOT let you burn diesel or gasoline, he switched pumps.

It was Uncle Sam's car too.
