NU12 by Andrew Chua - #6 Portable Gas Station

NU12 by Andrew Chua - #6 Portable Gas Station
What do we usually do to maintain our cars? We do regular cleaning, repairs, and refilling of consumables.  We don't have time to wait for repairs, that's why we usually leave them at repair shops.  For car washes, we now have car wash boys at mall parking areas using portable car wash equipment.  When we think of consumables; we usually think of engine fluid, brake fluid, and power steering fluid.  But the most time consuming refilling of consumable is the gasoline or diesel.  I can still remember several times, wherein i was already late for work and school but i still have to go to the gasoline station.
I think we should have portable gas refilling equipment in mall parking areas also.  It can be done after the car owner leave, and paid after he comes back.  Trust wouldn't be much a problem, since many car owners are leaving their cars to car valets.  If they trust the car valets not to damage or siphon gasoline out of their cars,  I think they would also trust gas refilling boys with their cars.  Also, I think safety wouldn't be a concern, since there are already a lot of gasoline and diesel in the parking area inside the hundreds of cars parked there.  
With the portable gas station, I would be able to save 10 minutes per week at the gas station, and 3 minutes per week for intentionally passing by the gas station. 4 (or gas station in mall parking lots).
