like, at no point do you actually see the gasoline. you’ve just got to trust the system.
Id like to think cars actually dont need fuel anymore but energy companies wanted us to stay on their subscription service so they designed modern cars to only drive when you go to the station and pay to put the placebo pump into the “gas tank.”
You swipe your card, the pump makes a good few solid kerklunks, and everything suddenly works again.
i wonder what it looks like down there…
did you think they store hundreds of gallons of gas in each one of those dinky stations?
as someone who needs to fuel up this thing regularly:
can confirm that gasoline does, indeed, come out of those pump nozzles
because they’re not gentle about how much pressure they use to gush out the fuel, so it inevitably splashes a little all around the filler tube (even when I’m being so careful)
