Back in the day when there were full service gas stations, I’d pay the extra dime a gallon to bring them back......

When I filled up one afternoon at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon a few years ago - I crashed the second annual Pig Party - I was surprised to find out the attendant pumped the gas AND cleaned the windshield. But he was nowhere as nice looking!
 
@devo ,

I think you meant to show a different page from that old advert: the upper corner of that last one says, "Thongs p. 66."

Again, we're only looking at the Land Cruiser and the old gas pump, right ?!
 
Oregon will pump your gas for you.
 
If I can find it and scan it, I have a picture of me testing the ground on the bed of Soda Lake near Zzyzx after crossing the Mojave on the Mojave Road. My blue '83 FJ40. My buddy had a red '71 FJ40 but opted to take his 4WD Tacoma instead (one of the first in SoCal)=Three days without touching pavement except for 1-2 miles for a gas stop halfway. Woulda been '82 or so.
