    I'm looking for other drivers who never put more than 1200ml of petrol in their tanks each day to be my friends and to support me. I only want to hear from supportive people. I'm sick of all the put more fuel in your tank bullies out there. I've been running my car on less than 1200ml petrol per day for a long time and it drives just fine. I don't want to drive it any further than the corner shop anyway. Motorway driving makes cars bulky, and that just looks so ewwww!

    You have do drive your car in the morning , it keeps the engine Revved up. If you don't your car will run sluggish all day and won't get the performance, you car might even go into starvation mode by lunch.

    Answer only if you can handle the truth: Would you kick the tires, wash the windshield, rub the leather seats, or FUEL THAT TANK?

    :laugh:
    You beat me to it!!!!

    But really, how would you rate the car above yours? Muscle-car, hot-rod, station-wagon, cross-over, SUV or luxury car?

    Guys I need some support. I went to the gas station in the middle of the night last night and filled up my tank until it overflowed, and then I filled two five-gallon gas cans I had in the trunk. I woke up this morning stinking of gas and I just don't know what to do. Should I give up????????????????????????

    should I refill my fuel tank after driving really fast, or does that defeat the purpose of driving really fast?

    Does it matter what kind of fuel I use, as long as I don't overflow the tank? After all, a hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon, right???

    Is it a compliment if my car is called a "CILD" (car I'd like to drive) ?

    What counts as gas? Does windshield wiper fluid count as gas? How about oil?

    Why does my car gain weight and the tires over inflate once a month?

    I own a monster truck. What fuel additive can I use to turn it into a sports car without any other work?

    Do you log every journey you make, even if just to the local shops?

    Since I started using 98 unleaded it's SOOO expensive, even though I'm using less and my car is running better it's just TOO EXPENSIVE to continue :sad:

    I have a 15 gallon gas tank, but I can't possibly fit more than 5 gallons in at a time because my car is small and older.

    Rate the car above you - Test drive, purchase, or scrap heap.

    I drive a Hummer, mini coopers aren't Real Cars! Big is beautiful!

    Also, I have a gigantic grill, can anyone recommend a good hood cover so it won't bounce when I drive? It hurts!
