With an electric vehicle, this is pretty much baked, viz.,
1. Plug in your vehicle
2. Get a coffee
3. Drink your coffee
4. Go for a pee
5. That is, uncannily, the amount of time needed to recharge your car. |

Its a daft enough idea to get my vote, but dont get the two pumps mixed up. |
|
|
There should be some 'at-pump' provision for (4) on [pertinax]'s list as well to enable to you to simultaneously refuel, ingest coffee, and pee. |

This could be the major hurdle for electric car charging networks. In most geographic locations, society is no longer at the level where you can just have a publicly accessible toilet without it being completely destroyed on the order of a few hours. |

The answer is obvious - urine-powered vehicles! I'm not a scientist so I'll leave it to you other, smarter bakers to discuss and create this much-needed technology. |

REMINDER: magic not allowed!! |

Better than a urine powered coffee machine |

Well that's easy. Just turn a1 upside down. You may need a small diameter funnel to make this work. |
|
|
Gravity may not be enough. Might need forced pressure to run the system in reverse |

I cheat. I carry an old wallet in my truck that is just wide enough to wedge the pump handle wide open while I run in and grab a coffee. I know we're not supposed to, but every single pump here has an auto shut-off when the tank is full. |
|

Every pump used to have a latch to perform this function but they've all been removed when we switched from full-serve stations to pay-at-the-pump stations. |

Where are you living, [bs0], that the zombocalypse is so far advanced? |

|
//Urine to coffee is an easy transition for most people...// |

Seems like an odd way to fertilize a coffee bean farm, but okay, I suppose if civet coffee is a thing, then... |
|
|
Just make sure you don't confuse the two pumps. |

|
Additionally, a small coffee eye spray unit would help tired eyes. It needs to be separately and clearly marked from the diesel eye spray unit. |

Philadelphia. The zombocalypse is very advanced, check Youtube <link> for our zombies in Kensington. |
