Zengum, the cost of those extra services was built in to the higher cost of gasoline. Don't wanna pay a bum to do it.

the other thing is the convenience factor. I could just pull in and pull out. With a regular car mechanic place, you pretty much have to leave your car for a while, or wait.

Well, I was thinking that it would be at a station with regular (self-service) prices, and you would have the option of tipping the bum/driveway worker, or DIYing.
My next thought was ... would you trust people like that with your car, and thus your safety?
