I am 53. All my life you stuck a fuel pipe in a hole and pressed. One of the differences is how you choose/can pay.
And for those of you thinking EV, someone else is sticking fuel in a hole and pressing.

The difference between gas and electricity is that gas is a liquid.
Meaning that it has to be transported and stored. We have gas stations only because gas needs a "last mile" delivery station.
Electricity though is already last mile, into the home. Or into the business, or car park, etc. The idea that you "go somewhere to charge" is archaic.
Once upon a time the internet piggy backed the phones. Internet cafes were a thing. In a couple decades we went from dial-up to fibre. Wifi everywhere.
Sure there'll be specialist points for those traveling cross country who want 15 minute charges. But 99$ of cars will just plug in wherever they happen to be.
The thing that will kill gas cars is that gas stations will disappear. The business there will do anything, except supply gas.
