It takes too much time by the look of it, way too slow.
But I guess thats a good thing though, speed kills. |

I've never seen fueling up my car as particularly difficult & if it smacked my car like that I'd kick it's $100,000 metal head in.

I don't like getting out at petrol stations. Too many fumes, I'd rather a robot take them than me
