Talking So I went the extra 60 miles...

...after my low fuel light came on. And for the first time I pumped over 19 gallons in my car. SUHWEET! It's good to find out my car's not broken. That is all.

told ya!

the light is an idiot light... not much value and way conservative for moron's like myself that will use that remaining 3 gallons. hehe

ps. it takes some serious work to get a car to vapor lock (at least based on my experience). I've had the maxima die almost 4 times just trying to get to a damn gas station. I'm just lazy

HAHAHA! Remember that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer was "test" driving the Volvo before Jerry bought it? They drove it so far past the "E" just to see how far they could go ...

DVatz = Kramer???

Chris you got those springs yet? I may move on without you. I finally got a garage - it's tight, but I've had worse.
