As the saying goes, "it's easy to buy a car, it's hard to keep a car". Buying a car is a one-time consumption, as long as you pay for the car, you can take it home. But car maintenance is not a one-time, the car in their own hands for a day, you have to spend money to maintain the car. Now the domestic oil price has risen, the price of No. 92 gasoline has risen to more than 7 pieces, and many car owners have begun to miss the previous "5 yuan era".
As oil prices rise, the pressure on car owners to maintain their cars will also become greater. In the past, 200 yuan could almost fill the tank, but now 200 yuan can only add half a tank of fuel. Some cars have a relatively high fuel consumption, the urban fuel consumption is more than 9 liters, and the monthly fuel cost is seven or eight hundred yuan.
In order to save money, some car owners will choose to go to private gas stations to refuel. The price of gasoline in private gas stations is fifty or six cents cheaper than that of state-run gas stations, and although it may not seem like much, the oil gap is more obvious after a few more times. And private gas stations can not only refuel, but also giveaways, some gas stations can also wash cars for free, and many car owners have thrown themselves into the arms of private gas stations.
However, there are also some novice drivers who dare not easily go to private gas stations to refuel, they feel that the price of fuel in private gas stations is already cheaper than that of state-run gas stations, why do they still give gifts and provide free car wash services? Is there something wrong with the quality of the gasoline, or is there something that shouldn't be added to the gasoline?
In fact, private gas stations are not as bad as everyone thinks, and private gas stations also need to be approved to be established, not just find a place to build a gas station can be operated. Every year, the relevant departments will also inspect these private gas stations, and those that operate in violation of the law will also be rectified.
Private gas stations are cheaper than state-run gas stations because their gasoline sources are different from state-run gas stations. Gasoline from some small gas stations is imported from small refineries, and although the quality of this gasoline is slightly worse than that of state-run gas stations, it does not cause harm to cars.
The operation of private gas stations is relatively simple
Gasoline in state-run gas stations has to go through multiple links from smelting to factory, and each step needs to be recorded, and the cost of mobilization and transportation is relatively high. Private gas stations are only transported directly from small refineries to gas stations, and there are not too many links in the middle, which can save a lot of time, and less storage links in the middle can also save a lot of costs.
In addition, the location of private gas stations is more remote than that of state-run gas stations, because rents in remote places are also cheap. State-run gas stations are mainly built in places with high traffic, where rents are expensive, and private gas stations do not have the financial resources to compete with them.
Low labor costs
There are fewer employees in private gas stations, and some gas stations have called their relatives to help in order to save money, so they can save a lot in labor costs than state-run gas stations.
In the case of gasoline quality is comparable, it is possible to choose a gas station that is cheap and has a giveaway. But we should also pay attention to distinguish, some gas stations although the price is very cheap, but the quality of gasoline but there are great problems, the addition of unqualified gasoline will lead to an increase in engine carbon deposits, suddenly extinguished during the journey, over time may also lead to premature scrapping of the engine.
