There are places in Oregon where you can pump your own gas. It is weird the first time you go to the gas station and someone takes your card, swipes it, and pumps your gas and hands you your receipt.

Drove through Oregon a few years ago and was at least able to pump my own gas in those areas, but it was hilarious.
They would still come out and tell you that you can do it yourself. Overheard one conversation with a guy maybe in his 50s detailing exactly how to do such a thing and even how to pay at the pump... then questions around "and it'll just stop on its own?" At another station, some dufus came out after I had already swiped my credit card and was in the middle of selecting the octane just to weirdly tell me "uh, you can pump it yourself" ......wtf do you think I'm doing?!? And then I went inside and confusingly looked for a restroom, and the dumbass told me their restrooms are out back. Another dumbass then said "you're not from around here, are you" ....wish I would have told them, no, I'm not from 1970, I'm from the future, where we pump our own gas and bathrooms are on the inside part of the building. Oregon is ****ing weird.

New Jersey will pump your gas and then carjack you afterward.

Dear Shaid,
It was the same guy who came outside, so I was mostly just carrying that forward with the dumbass comment... and it was also just the whole "you're not from around here" vibe... like I was the weird one to assume the bathrooms would be inside. I know there are a fair amount of old gas stations that still have a separate door out back for the bathrooms... and I've stumbled on quite a few on cross-country road trips. Their facial expressions both outside and inside were just so awkward, like I had a 3rd arm growing out of my chest or something.

Like others said, much of eastern Oregon you can pump your own gas now. I don’t know about the I-5 corridor part of the state though, haven’t been over there in ages.
