Tank on Empty

Me vs. E light....80 to 2 score

I am always pushing it when it comes to the darn E light on my gas gauge. I am very stubborn. I know that I have atleast 40 miles left once that light goes on. I have been wrong only 2x. I first learned of how far I could go with the light on when I was driving back from my girlfriends house. I left her house late at night and the light turned on. I had no more money. And at that time no credit cards. Everybody was asleep at my girlfriend's house so I didn't want to go back there. I decided to press my luck and try to drive the 54 miles home. I drove home on the freeway averaging 90 miles an hour and made it all the way home without the car dying. I got some money from my mom the next morning, but first had to go to school. After class I finally got around to getting some good. 60 miles on empty!!! I have never been able to replicate these results. It was just my lucky day. Now I play it safe and know that I only have 40 miles left when that light turns on. Honda Accords are the shit!
