I was totally joking about the ammunition, for most places.
There are general stores in small towns that do sell ammunition and gas, but that isn't the norm. Usually small town hardware stores sell the ammo.
The nearest gas station to me does sell hard liquor and beer or wine. The beer and wine are typical cheap stuff with a few middle-tier beers or similar low ABV. Some do have big walk-in beer refrigerators. The hard liquor is a fairly good selection.
If you want to see the most American gas station ever, look into Buc-ee's(Pronounced Bucky's, or Bussy's if you're fun). There are videos of what you find there on YouTube and some pictures or videos on Google maps. Buc-ee's is mostly in Texas.
wait till you see drive through margarita bars.

I'm never sure when it comes to America, but I'd love to move there. Like us Aussies with dropbears and Americans, I was totally convinced by your post haha.
I've always wanted to visit a Bucky's! We've got nothing like it here, so it'd be a genuine experience.
