    Haha. If I was ever at a full-service gas station and didn't know it, they'd have a heck of a time getting me to even wind my windows down. In fact, I'd probably hit the door locks and drive away if I saw somebody coming toward my car. We don't have anything of the sort here. We even have credit card stations that don't come with a building or supervision of any sort.

    I would probably have made the same mistake since I have NEVER had someone else pump my gas. When I was a teenager we lived on a former farm and had a gas tank on the property so I learned to pump my own gas from the beginning. ( I would try and get my father to do it for me...."if you want to drive the car you do the pumping...." same thing my husband says!)

    Having someone pump my gas would be a GREAT luxury!

    He he, they sure got a good laugh. John and I gave some guy in Spain a good laugh too, one time... we had hired a car, and drivíng happely south, we came to a toll road where you pay to get on (or off). Going past the booth? we stopped to pay the man, but just couldn't find where to open the windows, so John had to open the door.

    It turned out that they opened by pushing a botton in the middle by the gear.
