Runnin' On Fumes

I forgot to get gas yesterday when I noticed the tank almost on empty so after workout this morning l went by the station to fill up
Nice contrast. It looks so neat!

Vehicles don’t go too far on fumes lol good you didn’t get stuck out in the country , a nice shot

I like the high contrast on this- Jeff's rule is fill it up at a quarter of a tank. Ann's ability to remember to do that is questionable!

Anymore I've got a lighted gas tank on my dash telling me to go get gas. Sometimes it becomes a game - how far can I go and still have enough to get to the pump.

Love the sharp contrasts. I’m glad I have a hybrid. I just charge it every day and I only need to gas up when we are going on a trip that will exceed our charge.

Love the contrasts - was trying to read what you were paying for regular (could read the others) - we're at $3.14 - imagine you're somewhere near that.

Great capture and contrasts. Fortunately we have attendant here who do the filling. As we get a kickback when filled with a special card on Wednesdays, I could never forget ;-)

makes a great b&w...glad you made it to the pump .... My car gets to half a tank and I start thinking it's time for gas. Bob likes the challenge of running on fumes.

… and grabbed a nice shot.

A great photo opportunity.

I need to do that tomorrow morning before driving two hours up the road to my sisters house

One of my greatest joys in life is a full gas tank.
February 9th, 2023  
I've only run out of gas a couple times in my life but I don't like to chance it any more.

Such a good shot...true Americana!

@corinnec I am glad you think so Corinne
@Dawn no they don't thanks Dawn
@olivetreeann thank you Ann. I should probably follow Jeff's rule but I am usually more on your side of the equation
@randystreat LOL! this sounds exactly like me! I was there with this one this time
@shutterbug49 So glad you like it Debbie I don't have to charge or fill mine every day
@milaniet thank you Milanie This was $3.17 - down from $3.25 about a week ago
@ludwigsdiana I am glad you like it Diana I remember the first time I had to fill my own tank decades ago and I was terrified of it
@lesip I should do what you do but find myself more like Bob. I am usually never more than a few miles from home though Glad you like the photo
@johnfalconer i am glad you think so John thanks
@wakelys two birds.... thanks Sue
@nicolecampbell Definitely necessary for that trip.
@mkbowles There is a great feeling about it isn't there? No stress for a little while
@tunia I may have done it once or twice but with fuel injected engines today getting started again is much more complicated than it used to be
@granagringa Thank you Madeline it is definitely part of our culture!

@lesip - when i still drove, and lived in the country, i'm forever running on fumes to the dismay of the ex-partner. and of course it being the country gas stations were not that easily accessed. but then sometimes, even if the tank is only half empty, if i see a bargain i'd fill the tank up.

Very nice in B&W.
