Random question. I need air and I hate those stupid automated tire pressure machines. Is there a service station around downtown or the west side that has the normal, old-school air hose?

It’s a nightmare trying to find air for tire in this city. I bought a small compressor that plugs into your cigarette lighter , $40 at auto parts store.

I tried to find one of those a while--I'll look again, thanks.

Ryobi makes a battery operated compressor that’s the same firm factor as a handheld drill. Just set the PSI, clamp it to the stem, push a button, and it’s automatic. Super simple. You can open find them on sale for about $30 or less. I love mine and keep it in my car all the time. One charge lasts forever, and it shares the same pack as other Ryobi cordless devices.

Buy portable air compressor at Walmart it’s like $20 max and you can keep in your trunk

It's not exactly a great solution if you need air now but if you're ever in the Webster/Dudley area, or just on the state line, pop over to CT for a second. It's still free to put air in your tires there.

Those automated ones can't even put 20 psi into 1 tire for the 4 minutes they give you. Honestly a scam
