Well, I drove my car for two years before I figured out how to get the gas filler opened, and you feel stupid about not finding the clove box. Pushing that damned car all the while.
I did have trouble locating the puller for the gas filler. It seemed to me the location as pictured in the manual was off just a little from its actual location. Now the good news is that my owners manual was in the trunk of the car. Had it been in the concealed box I would have really been in a fix because without the manual the release for the gas filler would have really been a scavenger hunt. You are not an idiot unless we all are. A story of a real idiot was the one I heard recently. Woman took her two year old Chevy in because a light on the dash said to do so. (Check engine light or low oil pressure some of what we do refer to as IDIOT LIGHTS) Here the lady had driven the car two years and 30K and never had the hood up on the car. Had no idea that service was required. Even that may not be an idiot just painfully uniformed. But not to worry about the clove box. Just have fun filling it up. The comment about the gun prompts me to say only: Do it legal if you do it. I am a gun owner and certainly support good guys having guns (God knows the bad guys do) Just don't carry illegal. That can get you into a world of hurts. Keep in mind that a carry permit will not make you always legal. For instance. I have a carry permit but should I go into a Philadelphia or out of state I am not legal at that time. So even though I can carry I don't because its a pain in the you know what. What we need is a national carry permit where a guy could get maybe some formal training or some type of certification and then he could carry all the time just in case of a situation like this thing in Va. Too bad one of the good guys wasn't armed. They take the guns away from the wrong people in my estimation. And of course you can't right laws to stop the mentally ill. I feel for all involved. Even the poor bastard that did the shooting. At least he ended his own suffering which must have been considerable to do something so despicable. Be safe. JEH
