  1. In 1971, I owned a Richfield "Service Station" and two trucks as an Auxiliary 3A Contract Station. in San Mateo, CA.  A gallon of Premium gas was priced at  $.36 cents a gallon. That was when a Service attendant Washed windshields, Checked oil Levels under the hood and checked the air pressure in the tires, Less than a year after I bought the Station, there was a "fuel shortage created by Pat Brown, who was the Calif  Governor and the price went up to $.55 cents per gallon.  ARCO bought Richfield out, Started Self Serve at the pumps and Self Service prevailed and continues to do so now.

    When I graduated High Scholl in 1958, fuel cost was $.26 cents a gallon. That was the year that Mc Donald hamburgers came out and the price was $ .19 cents. Those were the days when life for a teenager was really FUN. Now, not so much

    Sorry, these old gas pumps have not worked in years.

    I hear gas was under a dollar a gallon back in those days.

  3. After Selling Tow & Recovery for 35 years, I am still at it and do not have any intention of Quitting. On the contrary, in addition to selling trucks through my Calif Dealership, I have also affiliated myself with 3 Dealers in the West Coast, selling used trucks from inventory at all three locations. Frequently, there are 30 to 40 used trucks to choose from and 90% of them are rust free.

  4. I first met Bill Robertson and his gracious wife Rita, in the late 80's at a CTTA Meeting in Ontario, Calif.  He was always helpful to anyone that asked for help. He always did his best to support the CTTA and do the "Right Thing", for all that he knew and met. Bill and Wag's founder, Rest in Peace, my friend.

    Could even be a 2018 or something with low miles.

     

    Either the dealers do not respond or they say they have what I am looking for then oh we just sold it.

    But wait we can order you one. If I wanted to order one, I know where to go. May have to do that soon.

    Send me a message, if I post my number again the phone will ring with everything but what I want.
