Only in the south of USA you pay before you fill up, I could tell the reason why but nowadays people don't like to hear the truth, because they only serve a Political Correct god.

Should go back to the old service station type where one who knows what they are doing and will tell if you tyres need air ect.
There is a lot of fools out there who drive around with low pressure or dangerous tyres and low on oil and all the rest.

A mate once asked what that noise is, of his relations starting up the car and driving off, I said that's the big end gone, it could of just been because it had no oil, they are the type of people who never service a car and would not have a clue and there are a lot of people out there like that.
It's a wonder there are not more smashes, so much for gov safety message crap every k over BS, such is just mainly brainwashing to get your $.

When I was in the states I got confused at the servo. Went inside and found out you have to go in and pay first. I gave them $100 note, went back out and filled up, then went back in again for my change. A bit clunky.

I looked into doing the pay at the pump thing, but didn't like that they take out the cash and credit back the change a few days later.

I had the same problem too. Try paying by credit card!

You get used to it though.
