Robot's slow... I ever wonder if one day, robot's CPU goes kaput and malfunctions, will damage and bang up car and scratch and pour gas over car then scratch to ignite fuel. Car go on bonfire. Be interesting to watch owner fleeing from car, burning up their lazy calories. I bet it sucks big time!!
Human is much faster than robot tho. I can pop open gas lid, unscrew cap, put nozzle in gas filler in 5 seconds.
I wouldn't try robot to do job for me. I rather burn calories just to put gas in car manually just like Shel90 said..
Or go to Full serviced gas station where serviceman fill gas for you. It's rarity nowaday. I've encountered just a few in Ohio and Kentucky. I recalled seeing old pump and I got out of car and planned to put gas in car. Serviceman came and scowled at me. He said It's my job! I told him Oh ok sorry didn't know that, Normally I fill it up myself. I realized that I was at Full service area instead of Self service area. Oh well I have to peel my eye on that when I'm in Ohio.

If there's key-lock cap on fuel, how can robot open it? IF it have big drill to drill cap out
If there's someone forgot about robot still fueling, and press "D" button, and accelerate. (Robot arm is broken . . . *error* *error* *error*) Ripped arm and filler leak fuel and armless robot caught on fire
If there's robot arm was not working properly, it got stuck in the car's tank, how to remove it? Use hacksaw!!
If there's no fuel door, robot would kept pressing - pressing - pressing just to find the door? Till it dents ur car and u sue it's steel tushie
I can do it faster than robot, everyone do need to breathe fresh air, and walk around after long trips. I'd vote no to create tankpitstop.Good! Everyone needs Exercise!!
cool but EPIC FAIL. the cost of buying robot for this task...... or hire a high school kid for minimum wage for same task. and i ain't got a lot of patience for this simple task. the car gas tank will have to be redesigned in order to be very efficient - like fighter jet during mid-air refueling. I could imagine this task would be done within 20 seconds since if it's automated... meaning the machine would pump gas at very high speed like firehose.
Really Really Interesting about gas robot..... wondering where is it at??
I dont have to worry to get out and get refill in tank myself... cause I don't have to get out and get hurt-robbed or something...
It would be great for their safety though.... plus dont have to steal gas by themselves. I see that many people steal gas without paying for it... Nice try!! I would rather to have that gas robot-- less stealing the gas or money... Just a thought!!!
Don't you have full-service gas station? NY-NJ are full-service by law.
