I now own my second hybrid.

k san

If they ever made one that could go longer distances. I have seen only 1 recharging station for such cars at Fred Meyer. To make them attractive, need many more recharging stations. Until then, no thx

Stuart Alpert

Why not?

Joseph Nelson

My next vehicle will be an EV.

Torina Wilson

How about YES!, but it’s too expensive. Therefore, I’ll wait

Kerie Raymond

We have an EV for local & shorter range trips (have gone to Vancourver, WA & Eugene, OR) and a Hybrid for longer range trips. Electricity is $10/month, and nothing once we have PV. No maintenance cost

No, too expensive

Electric vehicles need to be cheaper for me to invest in one. I'm just trying to get from point A to point B on a budget!

Because I want to make that choice being I'm a free individual in the United States of America. Free to make my own choices and not be told by a dictator governor of the State of Oregon. FDKB.

Fred Colbern

Government is already controlling you when you drive. Ever stop at a stoplight? That's some university indoctrinated bureaucrat deciding how long you will be made to sit there and wait for his little technocracy to "turn the light green" so you can go.

George Pearson

No one forced me! I love getting 50 mpg while gas guzzlers are paying my share!

GT Thomas

I do not want a vehicle liberals try to force on me.

Bob A. Bui

Screwing your kids/grandchildren to own the libs? Nice.

George Pearson

No one is forcing you! Watch something else beside Fox for a change, to get a full picture!

poor turtle

I mean I would but they are too expensive. Honestly I would rather to not drive at all and take the bus everywhere but that isn't currently realistic.

Karen Barker Rouse

Can’t imagine it would make long road trips easy.

Kerie Raymond

Not easy, but doable! Worth it in the long run.

Douglas E. Wilson

We are being priced out of everything by so called do gooders!

Robert Northrup

If it would meet my needs yes. Unfortunately there are none currently that can.

Ed Drahos

The answer itself is explanatory enough. It's too expensive. Yet the charging situation isn't set up to be a reasonable solution. This is because the industry is totally out for reoccurring profits to charge for such electric vehicles. You can blame commercialism for this greed.

Latterdaysaint

Waste of money

J H

Because the majority are NOT truly environmentally friendly! Would consider a hybrid.

Christena

I've always wanted a hybrid but having my vehicles paid off it's just not worth it.

dan bob

Although it’s environmentally friendly, it is far too expensive. Perhaps in the future when corporations become competitive in this area and sell vehicles at cheaper prices.

Hugh Jjggh

It’s not that it’s too expensive I just like gas powered cars and I love hearing the engine rev unfortunately kids today will never understand not only what that 3rd pedal is for but also a real car

Heidi Owen

Most people I know cannot afford them, but I'll bet kate brown can....

Kerie Raymond

We were fortunate to buy an EV new with substantial discounts and rebates, credits. $16K for a $34K new car. I don't think it's too expensive.

Ben Wiborg

Expensive or not the power cells are the problem when it come to disposal or manufacture.

Sam Ackerman

NO, I will however buy a vehicle that fits my needs.

Because the jokes just never get old, MICHAEL SCOTT NEVER GETS OLD OKAY PARKS AND REC DOES DONT @ ME

Sarah M

It’s just simply the best show on netflix

Waira

The Office has to be in my top 5 favorite shows of all time.

Claire Lewis

You can watch the episodes out of order on the office

Jordan Wang

even though it has its ups and downs, it’s peak is for sure better than parks and rec. also it has a way more satisfying Finale and Michael Scott is the best

MetalWoof

Parks and rec is definitely a good show but The Office just has much more rewatch value, they’re made in slightly different ways and are different to experience

creeper_killer5

It’s so much funnier

Swavy Wavy

It’s easy to get addicted to

sof.iiiaaa28 My dudes

this jawn is funny amazing and once you watch all of the seasons you can restart and realized things you never did before and episodes up forgot about

Austin Mitchell

The office is Funnier and the main character in parks is annoying I couldn’t stand another episode

Nicole Garcia

I love the office

Braden Kobeski

Hands down my favorite show!

Gigi McAtee

🐐

Lindsay Gant

This was a hard choice but The Office characters stick with me!

Sai Gohel

Currently watching it all over again

Aidan Nicholson

look i love parks and rec but the office is more binge worthy

Rachel Abudaram

Because I love this show it’s funny

Melissa Marie Wells

It’s funnier and the characters are better as well.

Drew Smith

Dwight & Jim. Nuff’ said.

Mike Aronow

Michael Scott is one of TV's funniest characters ever.

Rachel Clara Smith

It honestly depends on my mood though... They're both so good!!

It's a tighter ship to sail the whole series... The office gets a little clunky near the end

Gamer Kid

Not better but definitely more binge worthy cuz there are more jokes that keep u entertained for a longer time.

yeah because you could die from corona

k san

Absolutely! Coming from states where you do pump your own, it is definitely faster. At places like Fred Meyer that serve many people, attendants don’t always get to the people who got there 1st. Arg!

Mike Aronow

Yes, but, I wish they all had those clips that allowed you to start fueling and then hang out in your car until the tank was full. Some still do, but, I feel like they're increasingly rare.

sharder8

Nothing like waiting for the employee to finally get to refueling your car and then waiting again for the employee to hang up the hose. Having said that, I do use full service when in medically need.

Gina Ricketts

Because I can get in and out quick and don't have to wait in line for gas station employees who are the slowest individuals in the free universe lol!

Doug Paris

Because I'm not lazy and I am not incompetent-it is faster and in tune with the vast majority of the other 49 states-can't believe Oregon is still living in the dark ages-MG what is wrong with you pep

Keith Uht

48. New Jersey is like Oregon.

Ka San

Yes, absolutely!!! I've only lived in Bend for 3 years, and I find it slow and inconvenient. Even in bad weather, I'd rather not wait for an attendant.

Len Parsons

And the price for self service needs to be less than full service

Diane Springstead Cole

Growing up in Ohio I've pumped gas for years. I never minded it.

Susan Keith

It is better for the environment as the nozzle does not remain in the tank with fumes escaping until the attendant is able to return to your vehicle.

GT Thomas

You do not have to but it should be your choice.

Steven Huillet

Gas prices would be cheaper for one thing and service would be much faster!

Adam Hollman

Let station owners decide how to serve their customers and then consumers can choose where to buy. I prefer to just take care of it myself rather than wait until the attendant gets around to me.

56%

No, don't want to.

I'd rather not deal with the pump. Plus I don't want to take a job away from someone who could have been an attendant.

I don't want to take jobs away from anyone. That is why I won't use the self serve in Walmart either.

Patricia Morris

Came from a state where you had to pump my own gas and it is not easy to do in your 80’s

Nik Myles

This is a job killer bill

champagne dog

Why would I want to pump gas. I love full service gas stations and often tip the attendants. Self service gas pumps equals loss of jobs and inconvenience for customers. Please Oregon, stay unique.

Karen Schwecke Bates

i just had back surgery - definitely not pumping my own gas. Plus, we travel in between Washington and California - I love the fact that we can come back to Oregon and not have to get out of the car

Christena

It creates jobs, it's convenient. I don't really care either way but it's nice.

Danni

I'm old, disabled, and way too stupid to figure out how it works. Do you think women all dressed up for a date want to arrive smelling of gasoline?

Leslie Ann

I've poor health and greatly appreciate those who work hard and pump my gas. They need jobs too.

Rod Blower

We have voted on this many times, and it has always been bnb 9ted down

Toni Ayers

Why is everyone in such a hurry? Waste too much time on social media perhaps?

Linda Starr Williams

NO NO AND HELL NO!!!!

Kathryn Kinney Evans

Just not a good idea all around.

Linda Nolin

I have never had so much trouble getting gas as when I went on a trip to Az. last year. Can't use cash and couldn't get the gas to start because every pump is different. Had to get help several times.

Robert Northrup

The excuse that pumping gas is dangerous is ridiculous. Millions of people pump gas everyday without injury to themselves, others or their vehicle. It is worth it to me to pay for the service.

Gary Hatherill

I don't mind, either way. But didn't I hear the law says the price has to stay the same?

Erica Crossan

Because I don't want to smell like gas or get out in the weather. I also don't want to go inside if I pay with cash

Judy Fisher

Self-pumping gas in Oregon would eliminate those jobs for people who currently do this service.

Nancy Cook

I think safety and security are both issues. A hired attendant is a safer option, especially for women in a car alone.

Leota Evans

Because I like having my gas pumped.. I've never pumped my gas in Oregon... native Oregonian.. More jobs for Oregon... We don't need people being in a hurry pumping there own gas...slow down

Loni Jewell

The amount of jobs that would be lost seems would be a blow to a part of the community that already struggles to afford the cost of living in our area. Job elimination for convenience, no way!
