...How empty was it?!

osbornsm · 07-17-2015, 08:36 AM

Pulled into the gas station this morning with zero lights left on the "gauge"

18.44 gallons in the tank

Maybe i should have gone to an earlier station.

Ballsy!

Nicely done. My record is 18.64 gallons. I hit zero dots all the time. It is very rare when I fill up less than 17.5 gallons.

You probably could have gotten at least another 10-15 miles out of it provided there were no right turns

You should buy a lotto ticket.

DEpointfive0 · 07-17-2015, 10:28 AM

I've filled over 19 gallons a few times.

FPenvy · 07-17-2015, 10:29 AM

am I weird that I pretty much never have below 4 dots (1/4 tank)? lol

I never go below that if I can.

Nope, not weird. I'm the same.

****, does that mean we're both weird?

I got close to 18.6 once

I'd not do it again unless necessary lol

birdman71 · 07-17-2015, 12:02 PM

Dude I wish I could pay $72.xx for 19 gallons worth of gas. I filled up about 17.3 just the other day and it cost me $85 bucks.

Gotta love Cali... lol I think I paid $4.69/gallon or something like that. And of course the day after I fill up all the prices dropped like $.10/gallon lol.

I've run out a few times now, Fackin gauge not reading right!

That was in CA just a while ago.

The CA gas prices shot up because there is a "shortage" of resources to make gas and the Mobil refinery in Torrance closed now. Give it 2 weeks or so, it will go down again

DEpointfive0 · 07-17-2015, 12:50 PM

Also, I fill at Shell and get 20 cents off every gallon

Uxi · 07-17-2015, 01:04 PM

Wow, I start get itchy at 2 dots and think I got got to 1 once... 16.384 gallons by my chart.

I'm going to have a new goal. Can I adjust when the triangle alarm shows up?

Yeah I know, I read about it, I actually live maybe 10 minutes from that refinery in Torrance as well. Closed due to the explosion that happened a couple weeks back. Still trying to fix things from what I was told from a friend of mine that works there.

Once the shortage stops the gas will go back down and once the refinery is back to working status it will drop again hopefully. Around Memorial Day I was reading about how if things went smoothly this summer (which it never does with gasoline) that gas was supposed to come down from the rough $4.00/gallon down to around $2.75-$3.00 by Labor Day in September. It'd be nice to see gas prices like that again haha
