Booster is a gas station on wheels. No snacks or hoagies, but it totally eliminates the basic required trip to the gas station for gas. Not that that trip is a big deal. But Booster says people waste three billion hours each year on the gas station errand. The gas delivery service is currently being used as an employee perk at Facebook, Oracle and Cisco.

Here's how it works. The user parks, orders the gas through the app, pops their gas tank open and leaves their car. Booster drives a tank full of gas to your car, pumps the gas, then leaves.

The company redesigned the supply chain by cutting out the expensive middlemen and real estate costs. They claim at times the gas can cost less than at gas stations. 

Apparently a gas station on wheels is not a new idea. This one came with an air pump as well as two gas pumps. (Photo Credit)
