This is one company we really need here. This is an on-demand fuel delivery service. All you have to do is park your car, request a boost via the app, leave the gas caps open and well, that’s it! The Booster Fuels app allows customers to pay for their gas and notifies them of their delivery time. That’s super cool!

Well, do you have any weird idea in mind? Then, go ahead with it!
