In our little local town the mayor used to pull his pickup up to the pump, stick the hose in and go inside and have coffee with his pickup sitting there with the hose in it. Might sit there a half hour. While he was having coffee and shooting the bull he did keep an eye on the pumps and would move his pickup if it was in the way.
If I pull away from the pump to park elsewhere before I go inside to pay I feel like someone inside is on the phone with the law before I get out of the car. They aren't, of course but that's the way I feel. At truck stops we almost always pull the truck ahead a little over one truck length before we go inside to pay. Some of them have a marked truck parking place for parking after they pump. At some of the larger truck stops there can be ten pumps with a truck at each pump and one sitting in front and one in back of the truck that's fueling.That's thirty trucks sitting there. You truckers have been through the routine many times. Lots of gallons being pumped. Jim
