There's a first time for everything

So 50 dollars later and today is the first time that my T-bird has had a full tank of gas. I've had it for almost a year now and decided to fill it for the first time. I noticed the digital dash doesn't tell you how many gallons, it just has an F. Not sure why but I got excited about it. LOL

I wish I could fill up my pick up for less than $60 from near empty :(

I found out quick these cars got a big tank on them, filled it all the way up the 1st day i bought my LX, also was told you could get an extra gallon out of it depending on how you park it. Any truth to this ? lol
I'm the forum asshole, put on your big boy pants and deal with it.  :flip:

the only time i filled my thunderbird up completely was the day i drove to my sisters house to give it to them. even when i had a delivery job i never filled it(more weight to me)
every other car i fill(which is very rare) doesnt seem to go more than 300 miles but my tbird did that easily with plenty to spare.
