Do these people not realize that trying to get more miles to your tank only means that you're paying to fill it more next time at the gas station?

I would not want to run out of gas no matter what - you never know when you will get stuck in traffic, emergencies, whatever. It doesn't mean you have to fill your tank - I don't care for the car that I'm driving now - but have to say, atleast it's good on gas - Ford Focus

Looks like we got a bunch of Kramers on the road. I track my fill-ups, how many miles I get on a tank, and plan which station I should fill up at on my commute, based on price and how much gas I have left at that point. These knuckleheads should pay more attention.

letting the gas go way down in the tank (running it dry especially) is the worse thing you can do for your vehicle. There is dirt and sediment on the bottom of the tank that can move into the engine causing lower gas mileage, or engine failure at worse.

High gas prices are like a regressive tax whether you make $11 an hour or $10 an hour you pay the same to get to work. Sucks to not be wealthy.
NOT THAT DUMB AND STUPID

rising gas prices have nothing to do with fuel dash lights, that is how stupid and ignorant people in the lehigh valley are and maybe that's why they call them IDIOT lights.......
America needs to smarten up and not listen to the government-those people are the biggest idiots of all.........

This has little to do with the price of gas and more to do with sheer stupidity. Everybody probably runs out once in their lifetime, but I'd hardly connect these meager statistics to anything.
