Car ran out of gas on highway

For sure this is due to my user error. Was stranded on side of 401 express which has little shoulder and fast car speeds. Very sketchy and embarrassing moment. Remember to top off your fuel before hard driving.

This tiny fuel tank is annoying. I literally topped off Monday morning and only got like 200km out of it. Bright side is that there were lots of highway pulls

Only time I ever ran out of gas was in my E60 M5. Literally 200m from the gas station... right in front of an MB dealership too, lol. MB salesman came out and helped me push it haha.
