Think about it. acting like an asshole does not make you correct. It just makes you an asshole.

Your logic is flawed. No tank is perfectly straight anywhere. Crap will always fall below the gas level, and unless you run the tank near dry, it will stay there until the car is crushed.

And the Yaris' inner liner is rubber. That means the weight of the gas will always flex the bottom lower.

But most importantly, something believed and repeated by so many people for so long usually has a kernal of truth somewhere. Look at what we call old wives tales. Science is finally catching up to their truths.

Next time, try drinking a drink with the straw half way to the bottom of the glass and see if you can empty the cup.
