Filling up in Gas Station?
-
Here in UK it is actually illegal to do that. All pumps are adapted to be manually pumped, there is no 'Click and Lock' option. (Unless you stick something in the handle, but you are not supposed to). Mind you, we don't fill up with gas. We use a liquid, called petrol.

It's going very costly now. in India 62 INR(1.36644 USD)/liter. So most of the people in India who can not afford it are going with the gas(CNG|LPG).

I'll do that as soon as I get a USB cable that will reach to the car: My SD cards won't hold enough fuel to really make a difference. :laugh:

My deepest condolences, I suppose you get there eventually, albeit slowly and noisily, and having poisoned everyone you pass on the way :)

It wasn't that many years ago that you could do that here.

Gas (short for gasoline) is a liquid just as petrol is short for petroleum distillate. Pedant.

That's why my car has only a tiny 20 litre tank :) I rarely even notice price changes.
A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

Yep, Diesel works fine for me too, but here they also sell another liquid known as Benzin :)

My word for it: My little car poisons the rest of the world less than anything else that does not run on electricity.

93 litre. That's how I discovered that the pumps that let you pay without going to the kiosk stop delivering at £100... :(

Outch. I usually get away with less than 25 € and that lasts for about a month, even if I drive to work every day. And when driving to my family over the holidays I got about 600 km before I had to stop again. Not bad for a car that gets 10 years old in four months.

The girfriend and I have a car with a 50 liter tank. Filled up last night for 1.47 euro a liter, which cost 75 euros. that'll last about 4 days commuting.

What do you all drive around in? MBTs or 'just' APCs? :) Granted, a smaller car is not practical for everybody, but a little optimizing the costs shrly can't hurt.
