Arkansas has NO full service stations that I've ever seen. I've been to 15 out of 50 states and have only extensively travelled through about 7 of them. I've seen full service stations, I guess they're just rare in the south.
In Hawaii they did have them, but we were paying $2.20/gal (87 Octane) in 2001 anyways. This was Summer '01. They charged a few cents more a gallon and the attendents expected a tip, or that was the impression they gave me. ::shrug::
But anyways, by law they are required to preform full service ANYWHERE in the country if you show a disabled tag, except in the occasion there is only one attendent on duty, and that's obviously for safety reasons.

I still don't know why people are so averse to having someone else pumping their gas. I used to get mine filled up in NJ where i worked (mostly because its cheaper), but in the wintertime its great not having to get out of your car.

I can tell you're Francais heheh. Don't worry i'm bi-lingual. but i mean seems like you're comparing apples to oranges. Here today in Toronto (around my place anyway) my g/f filled up for 75.9 cent/litre....anyway, when comaparing litres to gallons there's 2 types.....US gallons and Imperial gallons. (i'm pretty sure anyway) i know 1 litre x 4 = 1 gallon but i'm not sure which gallon it is. and that's -40 C you're talkin' about. -40 F isn't the same. Anyway, i'm just buggin' ya Jean-Guy
Last time i was in Michigan (what a hole) i was tryin' to figure if i was getting a "deal" on gas or not but i couldn't remember if it was US or Imperial gallons so i couldn't figure it out heheh.
i have girlfriends who do my gas pumping. especially helpful when va/md was being terrorised by the sniper.
