Ran out of gas....
Yup. I ran out of gas this evening. At the ordering window of a KFC. I know my gas light was on. But it hadn't been for THAT long and I know Ive pushed past 320 miles per tank, but I guess 327.4 miles was all it had in it. :/ I'm so embarressed. At least the bf was on his way to me anyways. And if not, I have the GM roadside assistance or OnStar to bring me gas.
I'm so completely embarressed. There were 2 cars behind me and after about 5 min of sitting there the girl was like "is ur cat not starting" :(
ugh. That is all.
Lesson from today, don't ignore the gas light. They actually put it there for a reason.

Re: Ran out of gas....
Haha hunter. Cat=car. ;)
I usually get gas right away but I didn't have time before work and then stuff came up and blah blah blah. I know better now. I'm just glad I wasn't in traffic or on the road. I was on my way to getting gas after I picked up the food. There is only one station between the exit ramp and house and I hadn't made it there yet. :/

I didn't even know they had low gas indicators. I've had mine pretty low, but I guess not that low.

Re: Ran out of gas....
I grew up in a world where young people sometimes ran out of gas while on a date.
Next time you run out of gas, make sure Mr. Boyfriend is IN the car.
It might be more fun that way. :mrgreen:
Maybe? :roll:

Re: Ran out of gas....
These cars has low gas indicators and one more thing Never let a fuel injected car run out of gas I always fuel mine up at Half a tank that way I don't risk Ruining the Fuel Pump Remember they take an additional seven to ten business days to ship the part from Korea. Even at the dealership it will take a week to get a remanufactured part in. Please watch your gas gauge and when it gets to half fuel up it gets better gas mileage if you do but that's my opinion.

Re: Ran out of gas....
Believe me....it wont happen again! lol. And unfortunately, with the amount of driving I have to do, I would be fueling up every other day if I only let it get to half way. I usually get about 5 days per tank. Any other time once the light comes on I pull into the next station....but with work and other unforeseen obligations, I couldnt get into a station until tonight....which was actually 0.2 miles from the location I stopped to pick up food. ugh. I know I shouldve gotten gas before the food, but I wouldve had to backtrack and cross really bad intersections so I didnt think it would hurt.
Anyways, like I said, it'll never happen again. Just thought I would give everyone a heads up that the low fuel indication doesnt mean "low" it means "really really low". I was so used to my Nissan going so much further on when the indication came on.....
...........I made Kalos look pretty, and this is how she repaid me.... :/ lol
