No more getting out of the car to pump gas!
 

I'm just trying to figure out how the payment part will work without getting out.

check it out

I can see a car getting really fucked up if that arm malfunctioned :helpme

how can it tell if a car needs gasoline or diesel though? I guess it would have to check the diesel pump thing first because it wont fit in a gas cars hole?

Hell yea not to mention how does it know where your tank is? If you're in a truck that's way up high or if you're in a mini cooper? How does it find the tank?

i cant see that working on my boxster. the tank is on the hood section above the front tire....

edit: wrong thread...

You could always just move to New Jersey where pumping your own gas is against the law.

Both the diesel and payment thing (along with a host of other problems) could be solved by a transmitter/receiver setup like some metropolitan areas use for toll-road payment.

Put the little box in your window, and the station would know what gas you take, what cigs you smoke, and debit your card (via a previously set-up account) without you ever having to leave your car.

Neat robot.

... maybe someday it will be the future once they perfect it.

Very true. Good thinking.

I have a feeling these things will start to attack people.
