I have never turned my vehicle off while pumping gas in my life and have yet to have an issue. Especially coming from a Northern state where it gets pretty cold you see a lot of people doing the same thing. What is the potential risk or is it all just a myth?

Because gas fumes are flammable and your running engine’s spark plugs or even just built up static can ignite them. Half of all fires at gas stations start this way. It’s not a myth. Turn off your car. You endanger everyone there just to keep your heat running for an extra five minutes.
