sure, but some caps don't quite work with the pump plus the cap often gets dumped on the ground and can roll under the vehicle (if it's not tethered).

Our Escape doesn’t even have a gas cap, just a covering that gets pushed aside when you insert the pump. I like it.

Well, we will just have to agree to disagree. There doesn't seem to be any reason to take this discussion any further. I just think that saying "My mistake" is far preferable to saying "My bad"....but you do you.

Do you prefer, "that's a very interesting concept" rather than "cool"?
 
It's almost as if the English language can change over time. Who knew!

sometimes you just have to take the good with THE BAD
 
I know I've mentioned this before, but it is heightened with all the Christmas commercials. It seems like every commercial now showing a couple makes them interracial. Which is perfectly cool to happen, but from an advertising standpoint is clearly just a transparent battle between companies to show their wokedness and chase that millennial dollar. Plus, virtually every black woman in every commercial has the giant, frizzy, Bob Ross permed haircut, usually dyed blonde. Yet no black woman I actually know has that haircut.
