Service is definitely the word. When in Thailand they will fill you petrol tank up and wash your windscreen with out getting out of the car.

Your question was pretty wide! If you're doing serious research, you've got to come up with specific research questions. Also, are you sure asking members here is the most appropriate research methodology you should use?

Yeps Service is definitely the word and I think because there are so many people in Thailand are out of work and working in a Service Station is quite popular especially for those who do not have a degree except if you work in the office of that service station (at least some certificates) I am talking about more than ten years ago but I am not sure how much this has changed now.

Not only you don't have to step out of the car, you don't even have to off the engine. You can even make a mobile phone call, chatting while you wait to pay and receive your free bottle of water.
I like it they have big toilets, cafes, supermarts and sometimes fast food at these petrol stations.Paknam Web Network: Thai Travel News and Online Guidebooks

Re: Petrol Service Stations...
there is no fixed price for petrol at every station. difference by a few bath amongst them. if you are filling for large quantity then do some shopping around. Originally Posted by ThaiDude
