Dirty diesel islands revealed

I bought footies to wear when diesel fueling up. And this is why:



That's the bottoms showing how much fuel crud I picked up at a local diesel station. Not one of your cleaner ones, I will admit.

I also wear latex gloves. I look like a hospital orderly, or a geek wearing this, but, dang, who wants to track all that crud back into your nice clean rig?
  • Oh the shame. Next we're going to hear that gas station bathrooms are icky. ;)
  • I wear the gloves, but not the booties. I hate the smell of fuel on my hands, but I have rubber mats in the truck so not as bad as carpet. But some of those diesel fuel pump areas are just plain naaaassssty!!
