There is ONE that I know of anywhere even close to me, and it just happens to be a block from my house. Lived here for 17 years, in this town my whole life, never once have I been to it. They have no signage showing their price, but I would imagine that is a decent amount more than every where else that isn't full service.... But they're still open, so they must be doing ok...
My 75 year old aunt, has never once pumped gas in her entire life. If her husband isn't available to fill her car for her, she goes to the full service place. I would imagine majority of their customers are elderly.
2016 Lariat 502a
I pressed the "OK" button on steering wheels accidentally while sitting in the driveway (meant to press another button).
Driving down the road I was flying! Over 100 as determined by the digital speedometer. Couldn't figure out at first why my speed was now displaying KPH. Guessed at pressing "OK" and it switched back to MPH. Yay, cool discovery.
Not so fast! Not much of a discovery when the screen says "Press OK for KPH".
So if you're like me and the smaller text is blurred and you ignore the obvious, now you know how to switch the digital speedometer from US to Metric.
I used to work in a full service station, when I was 16... Loved that job.. got to see cool cars up close, and talk to the owners.. got to flirt with girls up close in miniskirts too! (skirts would sometimes ride up! :O )
Was on vacation in Seattle Washington a while back.. it was totally weird to me to have someone pumping gas in my car!

I also worked in a full serve station during college (over 50 years ago)--I also remember the girls in mini-skirts--oine of the few perks of the job; it was miserably cold in the winter but it paid my apartment bill and some groceries-plus I learned a little about mechanical things
Natgas.... and another perk, was having the bay available to work on our own cars in our off time. My station had no on-staff mechanic, so we were allowed to use the garage/bay anytime we wanted. Station owner, had a 64 Chevy Nova Drag Race car that he left in on side much of the time. We also had a drive through car wash that was free to us... I had the cleanest care at my high school!
FYI: That is my 64' Rambler Classic 550 in the background. I put the fold down seats out on an Ambassador in it.. they folded down into a queen size bed! - - great Drive In Car!
Anyway - I digressed from F150's... sorry about that!
As for leaving your fob in the truck and using the keypad to lock/unlock it...not sure what insurance companies are like wherever you are - but here in Alberta if you leave your keys in your vehicle (hidden or not) they can deny your theft insurance claim and you're up **** creek without a paddle. Just a heads up and sorry if someone has mentioned this already...there's a LOT of posts in this thread!
