Since I found this car wash to meet my standards and they do a thorough job cleaning the car inside and out. Plus, they have a shop with all sorts of little gifts and cards to browse through while you wait.

I think this Arco has the cheapest gas in Torrance--and the Daily Breeze's Gas Guy actually has listed the prices that way many times. It is easy to enter and leave this station, with two streets on each side (each with a traffic light), so if it's just a little out of your way, come to this location, and save a few pennies.
They also have fair prices on smog checks, and they are quick and polite (I had my car done here).

When you have an oil change at Hillside Chevron, Dave
Carney provides a pleasant well decorated waiting room
with a view of birds drinking from a fountain outside. There
is free coffee, hot chocolate or tea and Dave's wife bakes
brownies or other goodies fresh every day for the customers
who are waiting for their cars. The bathrooms are decorated
as well and so clean you could eat off the floors. This service station is one in a million. Dave has expert mechanics in his employ who check your car for anything
that might need fixing even though you're just having an oil
change. AND you get a free car wash with your oil change!
PROS: Best customer service you'll ever get at any service station!
CONS: None other than it's not close to my house.

I took my car to Chevron Fast Lube for the first time. The oil change was done in 10 minutes. The guys did not want to sell me any unnecessary service. This is very rare.
They did let me know about their findings, factory recommendations. I was educated on those recommendations not to push or threatened to do something. I felt safe after the service was done. They even checked my brakes for free... Highly recommend them....

Pros: Fast,Great customer service

Decent station thats usually clean. The cigarettes are usually expensive here and the staff behind the desk isn't the friendliest of the bunch. They do offer window cleaners and paper towels however, which is nice.
PROS: location, window cleaning tools
CONS: pricey smokes, staff is not all that friendly

This is one of the better gas station / convenience store / carwash / subway locations. It is located right next to Alpine Village. They are well-stock with most common groceries and beverages. They have a subway sandwich shop as well. The gas pumps have tv monitors which is nice. And they have a decent drive-thru carwash. One downside is, because they are in close proximity to a rough neighborhood, they lock the doors around 9pm. You can still buy what you need through a walk-up window. The other minus, is that during day one of the managers is totally rude. During the day, it seems to be operated (perhaps owned) by two Eastern Indian or Pakistani brothers. You can tell by the looks on their faces which one is nice and which one is mean. I avoid the mean one like the plague because his rudeness can really ruin your day.
Pros: Well-stocked. Many conveniences.
Cons: Rude daytime manager / owner. They lock the doors at night.
