In the 60s, I would not have had any glasses if Shell did not give you
one for every fill up. I still have a few of the Christmas specials.

"free with 20 gallon purchase". I remember a lot of those signs, until
economy cars became common and wouldn't hold 20 gallons.

My old Dodge van has a huge plastic gas tank and I think it holds 30 or 35 gallons. Back in the 1970's I had a little 4cyl car and it had a 10gal tank.. I don't know what size fuel tank my Jeep Grand Cherokee has. I'm more worried about the corn content of gasoline these days. ヽ(ヅ)ノ
