Gas is cheap in American compared to Canada... We're at 99.4 cents a litre, so let's say a dollar a litre, and I just checked gas prices in Michigan are around 2.8 dollars a gallon which is 3.785 litres, so you're paying a dollar less for fuel, that makes no sense.
TAX.

I once got so far past the E that I blacked out. When I woke up, I was in a ditch and the tank was full. I never found out who filled it up...and I never got to thank them.
LOL. That's what this thread reminded me of too.

This past summer I was headed down to the coast at my grandmas condo in Mississippi and was running low on gas and it just so happend there wasnt a gas station for miles according to the gps, i picked the one closest, like 8 miles, and left the main road...bad idea. The gas station was closed down haha at this point my last click went away. Well got back on the interstate and just rode hoping for a gas station and was cringing the entire time. Anywho finally found a gas station and filled her up, 12.946 gallons. SOOOOO close to being empty lol. That was the scariest 20 minutes of my life, you don't want to get stranded in the middle of Mississippi haha.

Not an s2k. but a Friend's brother borrowed his Integra once. In the morning we went out to the car and it would start and die right away. Then it wouldn't start at all. Put a gallon of gas in and drove it to the gas station

Wait you get charged tax when you buy the gas? Our tax is already included in the price it shows on the pump.

Been 60 miles since the last bar disappeared. Not sure how many miles it was since the gas light came on.. obviously more. Gauge is so inaccurate down there though, I don't really know how far I can push it.
