Ordered the deleted pencil holder

[RushMan]

I don't sit at the pump while entering the data. I get a receipt (also electronic) and enter it when I can. I don't like duplicating effort (write it down first, then enter it in the spreadsheet), and I like being able to access the data anytime I have my phone, which is pretty much always. So yeah, to each his/her own!

Last year, I made a couple drives to the Chicago area from NJ. Once in March and again in October. 3 of the 4 gas stations where I refueled did not have working printers on them. Sunoco stations!
My log book and pencil still worked.
Very high headwinds all the way westbound. I was very surprised at how bad my fuel mileage on my 2.0L '17 Escape was. I was expecting 28-30. I got only 22 mpg.
I did get 29-30 mpg on the eastbound return trips. It's called "Prevailing westerlies" - It's a northern North America weather pattern.

That's it. Your BS is not complete without it.

A pencil is too much work...have to sharpen it too often; then the shavings get all over the floor that I just vacuumed.

Glue the piece on your dash glove box door. Dual pencil holders!

There are no slots, but you could probably Dremel them. There is room on the interior front of the glovebox, or on the roof of the glovebox for a bunch of slots. The back edge looks low enough to clear a dangling pencil. You can conservatively add a dozen of these to your ride.

My pencil holder is on the inside of the cover of the console

I use a pencil sharpener that catch and holds the shavings, till i remove them and then recyle. Clean floor and clean environment.

Actually Major, the quote is "He WORKED it out with a pencil". I was a math MAJOR in college! And here I thought you knew everything

He probably does know everything but was testing to see if we were paying attention.?

All this talk of pencils is bringing back memories of my childhood. When I was in first grade, we were issued large blue pencils and told to practice writing our first name neatly on paper, staying between the lines. I complained to the teacher that my hand was too small to hold the large blue pencil, and asked if I could use a "normal" yellow #2 pencil. She sent a note home with me that my parents had to sign, stating I was being a smart ass.

I thought I was being logical.

Who uses a pencil these days?

I prefer a pencil, but I'm also half remembering a story about NASA spending ungodly amounts of money to develop a pen that would work in zero gravity. However, the Soviet Union just gave their cosmonauts pencils. Some would call me a "space cadet" but I guess I'm really a "cosmonaut".
