I don't know how it is where you live, but gas stations in this town - let alone ones with actual service bays like this one has - are vanishing at a prodigious rate. Hard to figure out why, given the fabulous profits being realized by the oil industry. Must make it interesting for drivers, too - "I know there used to be a gas station around here somewhere!" My natural cynicism suggests that the answer might lie in the notion of fewer stations = scarcer supply to motorists = higher prices. But, that's just silly, right? I'm sure it's all in the interests of greater efficiency. Absolutely.
