I have a pilots lisence. And ride motorcycles. You always have to think "What could happen?" And "What am I going to do about it?" Like if you drive around with an empty gas tank, what if you have to go someplace in the middle of the night and the stations arent open? What if they dont have gas?Also, an empty gas tank is prone to condensation of water on the inside. So it will rust, get a hole in it, and in general crap up your expensive fuel system. So I fill mine up when its half full. Thats about every two weeks or more for me so its not a big deal.

I always think the worst. You live longer that way.
