      What happens when you get to your destination? How will you put gas in to get to the gas station?

        Pulled it off! Was it foolish, yes. Dangerous, yes. Risky, yes. Did it give meaning to my monotonous 750 mile drive, Fuck Yes.

        Thank you for your support and good night.

          reminds me of the top gear, when Clarkson Drives to Scotland and back on 1 tank of Diesel in a Big Audi.


          Also reminds of 4 years ago to to the month, driving across South Dakota, dragging a big ass horse trailer and passing that last Open fuel station just across Missouri, thinking I will make it Murdo. 80ish miles or so but with 14gal (give or take) of Diesel left in the tank, and a 50ish MPH head wind, was getting about 4-5mpg that side of the river. We made it to the motel and truck stop, on the reserve light, truck tank holds 26gal, when I filled it up into the filler neck it took 25.885 gallons. If the Lights from the truck stop had not come into view when they did, I was going to have to get out and pour one of the 5 gal Jerry cans in to it, not something I was wanting to do at 8 degrees with that kinda wind and snow blowing all over the place.

              The unasked question is: Why in the fuck are you driving a cutless?? You are about 50 years too young for that.

                Seriously though, I don't mind running out of gas. It always gives me another fun adventure.

                But then again, for the past few days I have found enjoyment in strategically parking my car in places that will allow me to roll and pop the clutch to start it.

                        I as of today moved to Lawrence, KS to go to KU starting in a couple of weeks. I had all my crap at my dads house in Ohio and my late grandmothers Cutlass was also in Ohio. So instead or renting a car or making my dad drive out with me I just loaded up the cutlass and went for it. It's not a bad car actually, very highway trip friendly.

                        Ps. Sorry there was no blood or break down.

                                I push my crap car 20 miles past the pass light flooring it because I don't care as long as I get there. I figure it comes on with a gallon Left.
