I try to, but i fill at anywhere from 3/4 tank to E depending on price since it can swing 40 cents overnight. We already pay a premium due to all the Canadians so when it dips for a day or two it's a mad rush. Went from 2.69 to 3.19 last week, and guess who was on E...

I'm a big fan of using Shell stations because you can use the fuel rewards from your King Soopers card. Saved me $0.20/gallon this time.

It's not technically full, if the $ cut you off at 80, unless you had been topping it of from $78 and got it up to 80 or something lol

I always fill mine up, I'd rather stop for gas less often. I drive over 20k miles a year, so a tank (550 miles, just above 1/8 tank) lasts me about 7-10 days. If I filled up at 1/2 a tank like a lot of these guys seem to do, I'd be stopping for gas every 3-5 days. Pass!

Lucky for me though, I live in DFW, TX so there's a gas station at every corner. No gas shortage here!

Always fill up, no use having it if i'm not going to use it. Not a daily driver so generally fill once I'm half empty. Light driving when we stay close to home fill ups happen monthly. During road trip vacations could be weekly.
