If the car had been powered by natural gas we'd have been able to drive for free all the way to Seattle, then down to San Francisco, and probably all the way to Baja.

Keep near the waste bin a small jar with punched holes in lid, an inch of apple cider vinegar, and a drop or two of dish soap. Works like a champ.
