While refusing to take precautions can be thrilling, your flirtations with fate inevitably end up in more daughters, or running out of gas. Prevent the latter with TankOnEmpty.Com.

TOE aggregates info from driver-users about how far they were able to travel after hitting E before finding themselves stranded on the roadside, unraveling the mysteries of the Call Box. The data's organized by make and model (from the Daewoo Leganza to the Porsche Carrera GT), with a graph charting average distance, furthest distance, and standard deviation -- quite a lot of mathwork for the man too lazy to pull into an Arco. The numbers're augmented by anecdotes, from mechanic warnings about damaging your fuel injection to 100-mile gasless joyrides, Kramer-esque in their glee, though lacking in incoherent racism.
Tank's one drawback: though they're working on it, there's not enough data to break things down by model year -- age-blindness you too should've considered, Mr. "babies havin' babies".
