Oh the snow is not the issue. The problem is all the shit they use to melt it.

Salt, sand, brine mix and beet juice. All depends on what city or county you are in at any point in time.

Some car makers offer two different washer fluid bottle sizes. Canada bound models get the bigger one. I don't know if the FR-S/BRZ have different bottle sizes available or not.

As for the high capacity fuel tank; you'd mind as well get a racing fuel cell custom fit in the trunk.

Thoughts.... And go!!!

:slap: ........that's for starting such an ignorant thread.

Where in "hell" do you plan on driving your car ...... ??

Reminds me of back-in-the-day, when I was driving a VW bug around Europe.

I could buy gas through the EES (military) for 24 cents a gallon (it was 67 cents per gallon on the economy) but we were limited to so much per month.

So, I got a 40 liter container which my landlord used to transport dry cleaning fluid) and placed it over the tank in the front storage section. That doubled my range.

I got stopped at a French border crossing once and the jerks wanted me to pay a 75 cent per gallon duty ...... and they wouldn't let me turn around.

So, I poured the 40 liters of gas in a ditch just to piss them off ....... then found a Nike site and filled up, then went across another border crossing.

Even here, you can get across with 10 gallons.

:slap: ....... that's just for good measure .......:D

Why? Do you drive on roads like these?

I think the 350+ mile range we get on 93 is good, and most people will switch to a smaller tank for racing, but what if you had a racing tank in the trunk? You get another 8 gallons ish, but you'd probably have to make a switch to change between tanks. Sounds good for E85 if you don't have a flex kit though lol

E85 for Way1 would be $6.70 a gallon. He would have to sell his soul to drive any distance on the stuff.
