Never Run on Empty





Get in the habit of always filling your gas tank when it is no less than half full. In the event of an emergency, gasoline may be rationed or simply not available. Even the anticipation of a possible crisis can cause unbearable lines at the gas station. This has been seen time and again when areas prepare for the coming of dangerous weather.

In hurricane country, the anticipation of a coming storm will cause long lines of people filling both their car tanks and portable gas tanks for use in generators.

Do yourself a favor and get in the habit. If your tank is never less than half full, you will never be caught on empty.
