In theory, I would like full service if it was just like 10-20¢ more and the person performing the work truly cared about the job they were doing.
Imagine someone topping off your wiper fluid, washing your windows and doing a high level walk-around your car to ensure nothing looks out of place. Perhaps even some small talk about a good route for a Sunday drive or interesting events in the area, like a parade or public concert downtown next week.
But the reality is, like the beautiful sink your teeth into burger on the commercial versus the squished train wreck I actually get, those kinds of service people would be few and far in between. And, while I don’t necessarily blame folks for going all minimum viable product, I still think it sucks that we do. So self service it is.
You would imagine that someone would have already re-tried this idea and called it "bespoke gas service" or some nonsense. Put it as a subscription service and prolific nature of Love's or Buc-ee's and you would get people signing up like crazy.
