Wait! How 'bout a steak knife? A road map? A travel cup? Free directions? Check your oil? Wash your windows? Adjust your mirrors?

Golly, kids these days have no idea what a SERVICE station was.

Don't forget to check the air pressure in all 5 tires.  Along check the water in your battery when your check that oil.   Don't forget and wash the head lights also, yes and do the spot light also. 

There is one "SERVICE station" in Washington state that does all that yet for you.   I always stop there when going to and from Seattle.

As usual, you're correct. I had forgotten about checking the water in the battery. You're not permitted to do that any more, even if you're Mr. GoodWrenchTM. You might allow toxins to escape into the atmosphere, or something.

I have to check the water in each of my two deep cycle battery for my 5th wheel.  I have to add about a ½ Pint every year for the two.
