Which Side Is The Gas Cap On? has been added as a related post - related requested by lucky760 on that post.

I've never seen this on any of the 5 cars I've owned, nor any of my parents' cars (all together that's 1 Honda, 1 Mazda, 3 VWs, 3 Toyotas, 2 Fords, 1 Chevy, 1 BMW, 1 Geo, and 1 Dodge).

Does anyone have this on their own car?

My 2006 Mazda 6 has it, and so does every other recent car I've driven.

I don't remember my 1976 Corolla having an arrow though, and images from the 70s don't show it either.

This image from a 2006 Camry shows the arrow pointing to the side the fuel hose goes - http://goo.gl/fa9dxx so maybe it's only in the last 10 years? Is your car older than that?

My current car is a 2013 Jetta but I realized from that photo you linked to that I am looking in the wrong place. In the video, I got the impression they were showing the low fuel warning light and I saw nothing when I looked at mine. The little icon on the gauge itself does have a triangle pointing to the right, however.

I searched for gauge cluster pics of my prior VWs (2003 Golf and 2000 Beetle) and they did not have the icon. My mom's Ford probably does have it and I never noticed. My dad's Toyota might be just a year or two too old.

The rest were definitely too old. It looks like this is something that's been added in the last 5 years for most of these makes.

Moving this video to makach's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

I usually just look in the sideview mirror.

haha, oh boy. Surely the very epitome of a first world problem.

Older cars dont have the arrow. They show where the tank is by having the arm of the little gas symbol on the side where the tank is. So in the above movie, its on the right, where the arrow is ;-)

Or, ya know, get the fuck out of your car and look?

America, this is why the rest of the world thinks you're lazy and indolent. Now I know that for most of you, that's not true. But this kinda shit doesn't help....

This is really helpful for families with more than one car, to know before you park at the pump.

Every car I've had has this indicator. It' always an arrow attached to the pump icon, but it usually is not a light (Subarus, Chevy, Toyotas).

It's one of those things that seems "duh" after you've figured out what the icon means.
