Look at the gas gauge and there is an arrow pointing left or right.

Huh, I never knew that was a thing. But all of my cars have had the gas cap on the driver side, so I've never had a problem remembering that lol

Uhh, TC, you might want to visit a gas station in the next couple of miles unless you dont mind an unexpected hike out in the hot summer air.

While I admit I didn't know this was a thing, I can't see how this would be useful.

You're going to know which side the gas cap is on upon your first inspection of the car, which will happen before you purchase it. You only need to see it that one time. It doesn't move.

If you drive more than one car regularly, it can be helpful

I learned about this some years ago from a random life hacks post or video.

Multiple owned vehicles, borrowed vehicles, or (and especially), temporary rentals.

But even in my only vehicle I drive on a daily basis I still find myself doubting myself at times.

Alternatively, look at your car before you get in. The gas tank entry port should be visible as either a square or circular cover plate that has a small but noticeable outline around it.

When you're pulling into a busy gas station, such as Sam's Club, it's far more convenient to just look at your gas gauge to remember which pump you should use than physically get out of your car or crane your neck in an attempt to physically see.

Seriously, why are people trying to act like this internal reminder is some ridiculous or bad thing? Lol it's super convenient and only serves to benefit you.

Having it on the passenger side is such bullshit

Why you gonna make me walk around the car to fill it up, having it on the driver side is the most logical choice

Yeah I didn't know how to tell where you can know where the gas cap is in the car right as you pull in the gas station until someone told this to me too. I thought people just guessed and were correct or something. But I did drive two cars I shared with family where the gas caps were on opposite sides so it was really useful to look at the gauges.

A counter to this is less manufactuers put it on the passenger side so those pumps tend to be least used. When I go to Sam's Club the lines with gas tanks on the left compared to the right is sometimes like a 5-7:2 ratio
