Im not kidding you, when I get out of my car at night, I go to open my gate and ive seen blue sparks around 2mm long. Thats how much static im generating.

I always make sure I zap metal before I start filling up haha

So yeah if you dont hear from me anymore one day you know why :p

I always hold on to the A/B pillars when I get out of any vehicle, so I dont get zapped. But I learned this after getting zapped a few times when I first started driving. But my mom does as does my gf from time to time

I wore blue jeans today for the first time since I've owned mine and I got zapped every time. Wasn't an issue before I wore the jeans.
