On the Run At Mobil

Car wash is old style. Doesn’t do a very good job. Station is clean and convenient next to Walmart.

The people that work here are so bad!

Let’s just say there is nothing convenient about this store. I’ve been holding back from writing a review but I can’t hold it back any longer. Let’s just say don’t come here to get a cup of coffee in the morning unless if it’s after 7:30 AM. Apparently the newer girl that works here which is been about three weeks or so maybe longer doesn’t think anyone wants coffee at 5 AM. Here is what really upsets me and it’s been an ongoing problem. They never have hot dog buns and there’s always only a couple hotdogs in the machine, usually just plain skinny hotdogs. Why even have hotdogs if you don’t have any buns? Every time I ask the girl she always says no we don’t have any and I say why don’t you order some and she says I don’t know? Basically anything you ask this girl she will say «no“and «i don’t know» because she is too lazy to earn her money and she is clearly more interested in playing on her phone or talking in Spanish on her phone to even act like she cares. I clearly don’t have to say anything about the car wash you can read the other reviews about that it is definitely the worst car wash within 20 miles of here do not ever spend a penny at this place, it won’t wash your car and it definitely won’t dry it. I will no longer come here for anything. The AmPm down the street is glorious.

This car wash holds the dubious distinction of being the worst I have ever visited.
First, there are no automated scrubbers, wipers, or any other cleaning implements that actually physically touch the car. This means that the car wash involves only spraying of soap and water. You can get the same effect from a garden hose or perhaps a sprinkler.
Second, the water pressure is weak. The jets in this wash are simply not strong enough to remove accumulated dirt or dust.
Lastly, the sensors on the machine do not function properly. You may need to drive forward and reverse a few times before the wash engages.
Ultimately, you can get a better wash anywhere else, and for less money. You will not leave this car wash with a clean car unless it was already clean to begin with (maybe not even then). Avoid this place for all car washing purposes.

The carwash sucks shaven donkey nuts so hard, it left white spots all over my car. It doesn’t even look like it was washed. $ 9 down the drain. I gave it two stars because I’m sure the people are nice and the snacks are yummy. But never ever use the car wash. It’s has the weakest water pressure of all time. It’s like having a few 90 year old dudes with enlarged prostates peeing on your car. Just sad.

So I just went to get a quick car wash to get ready for the weekend thinking it wouldn’t take more than 20 minutes… SIKE! It won’t allow you to pay during the car wash that is going on before you which would be convenient and save time. Instead you have to wait until the person ahead is completely done, what a waste of time. THEN the machine is stupid. It tells you to GO AHEAD but won’t tell you when to stop until you have gone too far and then machine just won’t start. It ended up being 25 minutes at this car wash because apparently everyone comes here so the line is ridiculous and the machine being dumb doesn’t help it go faster. It wasn’t until the guy in the car behind me went to get an employee to help. Employee was nice so Ill give it a star. I’ll just stick to my hand wash car place I go to that’s $ 10!

This car wash sucks. Go to the shell gas station ones that actually take crud off your car and at a better value. This made my car look worse lol

I come here for the car wash, it’s still a water jet (as opposed to rag spinners) and it works OK with my bike rack, they don’t tangle or hook up to your external parts on your car.

This station is a bit out of the way (unless you just shopped at Walmart) and because of that the prices are pretty decent… especially considering it is a pretty clean, well-​stocked, nice-​looking place to fuel up.
That being said – it’s a gas station… and a convenience store. There’s nothing that will blow your mind here unless you’ve never seen a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos before.

This used to be my favorite gas station. I love the roominess between pumps and the car wash has saved my poor car from embarrassment on many occasions. However, a few months ago they changed the credit card machines on the pumps. These things are SO slow and don’t read my card half the time, so I have to swipe the card several times and sometimes even change pumps. Today I tried 2 pumps and neither worked. Gas pumps slowly, too. Very frustrating. Too bad this is the most convenient station for me.

The gas station formerly known as Mobil «On the Run.»
‘Back in November, 2010 — Southern California, Mobil «On the Run» locations were purchased by the Circle K Corporation.
This is now Circle K /​«Mobil»

The gas will be supplied and sold under the Mobil name but this is now a Circle K owned & managed location.

This is a basic, no frills gas station with plenty of room to maneuver your car between the islands. The staff is okay, nothing except straight, forward «What do you need?» It’s not rude, just direct. It’s a relatively clean location with a rather large selection of chips, soda, adult beverages, and the like.
One of the things that I especially like is the «touchless,» drive through car wash.
It used to be, purchase 4 washes, get the 5^th one free…
Now, it’s buy 5 washes, get the 6^th one free. 8/​
(Plus, the price for the washes have increased as well.)
‘Not a big fan of the new policy… (‘Minus 1 Star)

They also have a vacuum/​air station. (Takes Visa/​MC)

The car wash is okay for a quick clean up but don’t expect too much. (i.e. — water spots, etc.)

There is an option to use your «Mobil Speed Pass» @ the wash but DON’T do it! Purchase the wash inside or at the pump.
I’ve been coming here for a while and have yet to see the «pass» actually work. I personally think it’s for display purposes only… ‘Kind of like the plastic sushi in the restaurant window.

Overall, an «A-​OK» spot.

I like this gas station because there is so much room between pumps. At the arco down the street people are ramming each other and almost running each other off the road to get to a pump. This gas may cost a few cents more but to me its worth it to save myself the aggravation.

What you can expect here and around here:
Junk food
Better junk food
a car wash for your car that you haven’t washed in about 6 months
air for your flat tire
ample room to maneuver your car (compared to those tiny dive stations set up around town)
A bank w/​ATM in the same parking lot
A Vons grocery store that has just about everything. but if you can’t get it there you get it at Super Walmart
Starbucks…ahh yes, Starbucks
and did I mention gasoline at decent prices!
