    Another thing you Americans do backwards is making me pay BEFORE I fill up my car...that just doesn't make sense!!!!

    That's 'cuz people pump and run...

    I just use my credit card...I also get double miles on my CC for gas, so bonus...

    We haven’t had full service gas stations in years here.

    I don't think there's a full service gas station within 100 miles of me, so, yeah, I pump my own.

    I live in NYC so we can pump our own but some gas stations are full service meaning an employee pumps gas for you. Whenever I go across the river to NJ it’s illegal to pump your own gas. I like pumping my own for the sole reason that I only have one car to worry about so it’s faster getting out. But in the winter it’s definitely nice to not have to leave the car

    I’ve never used full service. Seems weird to me. I don’t mind pumping gas. I just click the thing and browse social media on my phone..

    What? You don't watch the numbers to try get it on the exact right amount and scream, shout and kick your car if you don't?

    Yes!! And I always try to guess how much I'm going to have to pay! Kinda silly 'cause I suck at math, but typically ~$55 to fill my little mazda 3

    Why is it illegal in NJ?
