Isn't it grammaticaly incorrect to use "great state" and "New Jersey" in the same sentence?
Hey! Don't look at me like that. I live in Nebraska, for cryin' out loud. That fact alone entitles me to poke a little fun as compensation.
And just so as not to threadjack...yes there is a auto-shutoff mechanism, that obviously failed. This has nothing to do with "the levers that you can click so it stays pumping". However, I have to wonder, realizing that gas ain't exactly cheap, how you managed to physically hold the handle "open", long enough for a $1.00s worth to spill over, and not notice.
Not saying that it wasn't equipment failure...but how could you not notice after the first second and a half of spillage?
