i did this the other day and for the first time in 10 years of driving the thing somehow malfunctioned, overfilled and sprayed like 2 gallons of gas everywhere. i just drove off leaving a huge puddle of precious 92 octane fuel

I can't do this in my Ford truck or it will pump like $120 worth of fuel before I notice and stop it.
I have no fucking idea how much it holds, or where it goes, but it's taken 40+ gallons without issue before.

GET OFF THE FUCKING ROAD IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD TIRES BITCH

Don't complain about other people being unsafe by driving too fast when you're the one endangering yourself and others with your bald fucking tires.

Extremely rare to see gasoline pumps around here with the hold-open lock thing on the nozzle, but one Chevron does, and it works great.

It's like natural selection

>he doesn't know his tank capacity
>he doesn't live where gas is $1.90/gallon
Jesus Christ dude

I live where it's like $3 a gallon because I enjoy having a job that isn't at the local lumber mill.

I've never bothered to find out how much fuel it takes because I drive it like 50 miles a year and it gets 0.4mpg

>people tapping their brakes for no reason

I don't get it. They aren't speeding and nothing is in front of them. They are usually focusing on the road.

Happens everything I go on I70

Just put the gas cap in the hand guard

I wish I worked at the lumber mil.
Real work is what men crave. It's like electrolytes.
Tons of office sissies play home steader on the week end.
And tons flee the city to role play full time what being a real man is.

I literally sat behind a Mustang GT driver today who filled his car up with the fucking car still running while he sat in it. I was like
>Literally what the fuck stop

I honestly believe there is a secret society of people who will match speeds with the car next to them for miles just to ruin everybody else’s commute.

Either that or most drivers are retards and only pay attention to what’s in front of them

what sort of weird larping is this?

>yfw the whole "shut your car off thing" is meaningless with returnless fuel systems

I do this all the time without issue. Maybe it's because I don't drive a 3k civic or moms minivan. Also it's like 5 degrees in the morning when I get gas. Fuck you if you think i'm just lurking outside for your sick pleasure.

I've been seeing this almost every day since the roads have been snowy where I live.

I'm a new driver and anyone older than me in the car freaks out when I go a mile over the speed limit.

>My mom still freak out when I drive
>I’ve never been in an accident
>I’m 38 and married with 2 kids

I fill my car while it runs, nothing wrong with it m8

...

>Drives with:
>Headlights on
>High beams
>Fog lights in
>During dusk
>With plenty of light
>Some autolights not even in yet
>At just the right height to blind me in any car
I'm just grateful they didn't have a light bar.

>$1.9 gallon
>Mfw local petrol his $2.30/L for 98 last month

How do you yanks complain about so much when your petrol is cheaper than water?

this holy shit i hate it so much

alternatively

>braking at night every time an oncoming car passes

that's pretty cheap, user. $2.15 in MO. where you at?

also,
>capitalizes jesus christ

driving in slush/snow with all seasons doesn't endanger shit if you don't go too fast

remember, tires are legitimately expensive. $500+ a set. before labor. most people can only swap out wheels, not tires.

Holy shit

>brake light disco
It's always bmw and Mercedes drivers.
I get the impression that every other driver can regulate the speed of their car with just the throttle, but these retards feel compelled to scrub of 1 or 2 mph by using the brakes.
It's annoying as fuck because I don't know if they've jumped on the brake because of a legit hazard or if it's just some spastic that hasnt figured out how to operate a throttle pedal.

>people who slow to 5mph to make a turn
>people who take freeway exits st 20mph
>people who STOP ON ONRAMPS holy fuck
>people who do the speed limit and no more in the left lane
>people who can’t into roundabouts/rotaries

>torrential rain
>people still tailgate and speed
do these people have a death wish?

Texas. Also, my phone does that.

>moderate rain
>everyone does half the speed limit

I picked my father up from work. He complained that I was doing 72mph in a 70mph when I overtook someone. Huuuuuge lecture about safety. Then he got mad I was only doing 29 in a 30 and said “come on get moving”.

He never keeps to speed limits anyway.

Ignore them. It’s a “I’m older you’re the child” thing. I still get it now at 23. My 28 year old sister still does.
£1.19 per litre here. Down from £1.34

>People who can't keep in the lines while doing the speed limit but want to go faster.
>People who decide to stop 30cm behind you on a massive hill
>People that do 20 over the limit and then slow down to 10kph around corners.

Autofags that just put their car into park too park their car neglecting their handbrake for the very use it was made for and then wonder why they need a brand new autobox.

It's been $1.72 for 98. Disgustingly expensive. I'm assuming you live in the UK though where petrol is rarer then in the Mad Max universe, therefore causing every car to have a smaller engine then 1500cc.

>does a job that doesnt require a truck
>drives a truck because he is scared of losing his masculinity
how does it feel to be secretly gay?

>slight bend in road
>BBBBBBBBRAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE down to 40
>accelerate back up
>repeat x10000

Ironically your more likely to get into an accident doing that because alot of the people I see doing that brake through the corner.

its what real men live of of. you probably wouldn't understand

>leave space between car in front for the ppl who stop 30cm behind you
>guy stops 30cm behind you
>scoot forward a bit
>he scoots as well

>approaching in town 60km/h zone on highway
>begin slowing
>retarded wrx driver crosses over double solid line to overtake me at about 90km/h and nearly has a head on
>back in 100km/h zone
>wrx still travelling at 90km/h

What kind of idiot am I inching up in traffic, I like my clutch being below 200 degrees

Not him but I do. It’s all of the tax that’s thrown on top of it. Takes the piss. I drive a 1968 Land Rover. My mpg is bad as it is without fuel costing stupid money. We are taxed beyond reason, at least my road tax is free due to vehicle age.

People who don't use the exit lane properly. instand of using the whole lane, they enter after 20% of it (and not because they forgot to exist at t ime, but because they can't comprehend the beginning of the exit lane, when it still not in full size)

>People who decide to stop 30cm behind you on a massive hill
that's what you get for driving manual

Yeah sucks that fuels that bad. I remember watching a british driving school video when I was learning how to drive manual. And he was saying how driving schools use powerful 2 litre engines not 1 litre engines like people usually use after they pass their test. It honestly left my jaw wide open that in the UK a 2 litre is considered powerful.

Enjoy your car being slower then it needs to be because of torque converter loses and your gearbox shifting way too early.

Haha yeah, my parents consider their 1.9l Golf TDi as a powerful car. Maybe they confuse power and speed. It’s got some speed to it but it’s not a powerful car. I learnt in a 1.6 I think.

Keep in mind that our towns are often small windy roads with little space (at least where I am) and there’s little need for lots of power outside of commercial use. In general we just don’t need/want big engines unless we are petrol heads. My landie has a 2.25L and people say that’s huge. It’s underpowered imo

I drive a 1.8 323 astina, in Aussieland it's considered a very underpowered car but it's fairly enjoyable to drive because they are so goddamn light.

2 litres is considered huge here by most people.
Bear in mind most domestic cars here in the 60s were only around 1000cc, with 1.6L being considered "big". Japanese Kei car tier really, but both places are small island countries

In Australia anything sub 2 litres is considered tiny.

So what do people drive? Every car in Australia that is under two litres is considered a shitbox, you can't get nice cars under two litres.

Mainly 1.2 to 1.8 petrols, or 1.8 to 2.5 turbodiesels.

Pic related is my 850cc engine. But then again I like old microcars so it's by no means normal.

What I'm saying is I can't even think of any cars that are below 1600cc besides a morris mini cooper and a honda S800

Different engine options and transmission options on the same cars depending on the country it's sold in.

At $120 I haven't even filled my 70 liter tank...

Pretty sure you don't """"""need""""" the vehicle you drive either

>$
>RON

He’s likely either from Australia or New Zealand

This is perhaps the best example of "huge car with tiny engine" that I could find

Logans also have 0.9 TCe engines available, fucking frenchfags.

Jesus Christ. That's only 50 more cc than my reliant, a 400kg tricycle. Although turbos I suppose

Can that go over 50kph/30mph?

A Renault kadjar that I rented in France was a huge piece of shit with a 1.2L engine. Absolute rubbish.

It's to intimidate tailgaters.

It doesn't take all that much power to maintain 60 mph, it's just a matter of how much time it takes to get there. Hills on the other hand I have no idea.

People that park like absolute shit, switch off, get out and fuck off for the day. Parked in a way that can stop multiple other cars parking, that’s dangerous to cars on the road or just plain poorly.

Have some pride and consideration in your driving. If I can parallel park my 50 year old van then your Prius can too.

Its ok though, the 4x4 will be in a ditch because they never bothered with tires either.

Yeh, you gotta keep the A/C going..

Well if you think of it in this way you might begin to understand the mentality a bit better:

In the 60s and 70s most cars in the UK had 1.2-1.6 engines and were fast enough, even sports cars didn't need lots of power since almost every new car was very light. In the 80s 1.6-1.8 engines became commonplace and the 130hp you would get would be enough to power the average car, by the time the 90s rolled around these engines were still efficient and weight hadn't increased dramatically, sportier cars and hot hatchbacks would get 16 valve 1.8-2.0 4 cylinders and would be fairly rapid with 7-8 second 0-60 times and 180-200 horsepower, cars with more than 4 cylinders would naturally be considered bigger engines since 4 is the average number. People once they would pass would cut their teeth on a 1.1 whatever because it's cheap.

In America in the 60s most cars would be huge and heavy as fuck, so the 4.7-6.0l V8 making 200hp would be needed to cart them around at adequate speed, the 70s rolls around and cars need to be smogged, but american automakers know that consumers will laugh and they wouldn't sell shit if you make that 150 required hp out of a 1.5l 4 in a small body, so they stick with the 5.7 V8 and make 120hp and try and lighten the cars a little while maintaining the size. The 80s rolls around and the american V8 is now out 10 years of development time, manufacturers start to shift to lighter bodies, FWD and smaller engines but again consumers will scoff at small engines so they compromise with 150hp 3.0 V6s in shit like Ford Tauruses. The sports car market is mainly made up of straight line monsters and the legacy of the muscle car so the V8 is the go to choice here and they're making 200-250 HP.

The actual difference in speed and power is minimal, it's just that in the 50s American automakers began with a period of excess that meant efficiency could effectively be wasted, while Europe was wartorn so efficiency was demanded.

truck drivers from oversea that drive at 10mph

This, I fucking hate people in the fast/carpool lane going the same speed as the next lane over

>tfw let my car run while I pump gas

>that guy that smokes near the gas pumps
Not gonna lie, it looks pretty badass.

I want to shoot whatever cockface at gm that decided that if you unlock the car or open the door but don't have the key in the brake and reverse lights come on even during the day. now driving though parking lots looking for a spot it never fucking fails that I see an equinox or Malibu or whatever with brakes and reverses so I stop to take their spot only the realize 30 seconds later the cuntsmith is sitting in the car and not actually backing out.
FUCKING DUMBFUCK COMPANIES REEEEE

>£1.27/litre for diesel
>tfw living in bumfuck nowhere

>doesn't know how much capacity his fuel tank holds.

Fuck me this is a simple google search you fucking retard, stop driving, you're too fucking stupid.

when people spit or throw shit out their window

But I don't tailgate and it happens when the other car in in an adjacent lane with no-one behind them occasionally

>pumps you have to pay at before fuelling

I live on an island.

Diesel is 1.19 here. Also often the diesel pumps are out of service. My parents drive a diesel and constantly moan.

>red light
>car in front of me stops 3 meters before the intersection
>spends the entirety of the red light slowly inching forward as if he was stalking wild animals in africa

I don't tailgate people on the road, but I will come to an inch of your car if you pull that shit, especially because it makes them feel nervous.

> Get to stop light
> Everybody starts slowly movinging up inch by inch over the life of the red light
> There's an entire car length between me and the guy in front of me by the time it turns green.

Shit drives me up a fucking wall. YOURE NOT GOING ANYWHERE WHY ARE YOU MOVING.

>angryatredlightdriversmind

>not letting gravity do the work for you

Yesterday I was stuck driving behind a tiny asian lady in a big Mercedes crossover in the left lane going 90 kmph in a 130 zone for 10 minutes, constantly tapping the brakes with nothing in front of her or behind her.
The entire right lane was full of big trucks so she was creating a traffic jam for all the regular traffic. Cunt.
