Thanks...I travel often and rent cars. Hate having to re-maneuver after finding out that the pump is on other side.

Ford started it several years ago, when they owned Hertz and the rental agency was their largest customer for the Taurus. These days most cars in rental fleets have the indicator, at least the last cars I rented did (VW, Mazda, Chrysler, Mustang, etc). Not sure about the Impala two weeks ago, but then it was a terrible car in any case.

Everytime I have a rental or borrowing a car that need gas, I stick my head out and half the time I can't see it. So I take a 50/50 chance and park it by the pump and hope I went to the correct side. 50% of the time I get back in and move the car. Never knew about this, thanks 888!
