Which one are you?

[Abbey Marie]

I’m definitely not an “I got this”. Right, @Kathianne ?

A

[icansayit]

A Sounds like a Canadian answer....huh? A???

[Black Diamond]

More toward A.

Got burned when I was a kid being B.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Only it was summer before last procrastinating about getting gas when the hurricane that did nothing to us caused a panic and gas shortage. I drove around for awhile between 1/4 and E

Try to keep a half a tank or more now, especially NOW. A tank of gas will get me WAY out into the desert in case I have to diti on short notice. Anyone looking can find me THERE

Ok, wasn't me. High school. Run to Milwaukee. Her dad's Lincoln. Going 115mph, "Almost out of gas, we'll be good on fumes and coasting!" Yeah, even then I felt sick.

Guess I'm B.

I hardly ever watch fuel gauge. I watch my "range". I figure computer will tell me when I need to get gas. I do a lot of calculating when I'm on the road.

However, when in town I fill up every time I go to Costco no matter what the gauge says. I'm like Gunny in that I need at least enough gas to get me 250 miles WTSHTF which is usually a half tank. So, most time I'm never below half unless I'm traveling.

I am a B... I calculate my daily driving every day, or at night when I plan on my next day's activities. I always know my car's mpg to the ounce almost. I know when to top off the tank , when to leave it setting on one eighth or even less.
These last four months I top it off several times a week, as I take into account all the bullshit being spewed now and all ffing idiots doing that ffing shit now.
Car fueled up, guns well maintained, loaded and waiting to be efficiently used whenever needed.
Survival is key and Preparation is key to SURVIVAL.
All of my life since about age 18 , I have maintained that- ""I damn sure will not go down without one hellluva fight.""
And I will if able take one helluva lot of the ffing bastards with me.... As many as humanly possible... My solemn vow....
And yes, the ffing maggots should fear me... A fact...
Gas needed for speed and distance -one must always be able to correctly fight or take flight as the situation calls for..

My father taught me at an early age-- man is a very, very, very dangerous beast.
Son, it is best you prepare yourself to face that sad, tragic and dangerous reality.
LEARN TO FIGHT. LEARN TO SHOOT. LEARN HOW TO USE A BLADE. HOW TO EAT FROM THE WILD,
HOW TO TRAP FROM THE WILD. HOW TO SURVIVE--BECAUSE SOME FUTURE DAY THAT MAY JUST BE WHAT SAVES YOUR LIFE
AND QUITE POSSIBLE THAT IT ALSO MAY EVEN SAVE THE LIVES OF THOSE THAT YOU LOVE.

I filled up to the over fill amount yesterday, after my making my grocery shopping run and my filling tanks for my mowers..
Some may think this is being frantically overcautious, but they fail to see--
that is better to be prepared to fight to live than it is to be unaware of how many billions have died because they so very foolishly and in a erroneous blindness saw no need to maintain a discipline that is that important in life...
I am 66 years old now and this attitude/discipline has saved my life in more ways than one at least three/four times already in that long span of time..
I am not the A-type because panic is not my thing...
I will not let panic be my thing, because fear has a history of showing that it far, far too oft leads to fatal mistakes..--.. --Tyr

I looked at this as a more general character trait difference, not just about how we react to an almost-empty gas tank. And in all ways, I’m much more of an “A”.
@NightTrain are you a “B”?

I'm with you. I get in the car and check the gas gauge. I like to know that if it breaks down, my car has gas. Seriously, it makes me nervous below 1/2 tank.

Having lived through the “gas crisis” it’s easy to be uneasy.

It seems connected with my 'be early' compulsion. LOL! It's hard to be early if you run out of gas.

Have you read Bonfire of the Vanities? They got in an accident in a sketchy neighborhood, and lives were ruined. Running out of gas can end up with a similar outcome.
