- mjmahone17 10y agoNot sure I want a gas truck driving into parking structures in the middle of Manhattan to top-up private cars. That seems like a serious health and safety hazard. And there really is no excuse for Manhattan needing to have numerous gas stations: the island is small and accessible to vehicles from other boroughs. Plus Manhattan has more than a gas station per square mile, which is more than most suburbs I know of.
- duderific 10y agoFor people in a constant time crunch, this service is quite appealing. You always seem to wind up short on gas at the worst possible time, or notice that your tire is low on air when you are not able to make a stop. As the parent of a two-year-old, I can definitely see a need for this. It would be a great gift for new parents, for example. The price seems a tad high for me personally, but as can be seen by them already being profitable, clearly many people are willing to pay for it.
