how fast from 0-60? depends on traffic, how hard you push the pedal, manual or automatic, uphill or downhill, what gear you start in... that sort of thing.

I don't get this post at all...
seems kinda straightforward....
good luck trying running the tank down enough to get 14.5 in it
13.5 or so is the lowest I've ever gotten, and going around the last corner, she almost died on me.

more invisible miles, since you're just paying for gas you're pumping back into the nozzle

if you put in 14.5 gallons.. you must've been pushing your car into the station.. at which then you're stupid for running out of gas.

EPA.... Darn Envirnmental People... Good points though... I like my car too much to risk fuel dripping down the side...
PLUS... I live in one of two lovely states where for some insane reason, it is illegal to pump your own gas... so I have to sit in my car and gamble that some minimum wage hack doesn't smack the nozzle into my car or drip fuel down the side.... Lame State of Mine.

i remember when i was in Oregon and I stopped at a gas station. I got out and starting go and pump. This guy came nad started yelling at me! I was like what the hell does he want? I am sure they get that alot with out of staters. he understood though. I never heard such a thing when I did it and I thought, how crazy is this.

yep, oregon and new jersey are the only 2 states by law that a full service be required at a gas station. i'm from oregon by the way and i just recently went to NJ to visit some family and they're like that too.
