I don't notice a performance difference between a full tank and a almost empty tank.

But I sure do notice a performance difference between when mrs humfrz is a passenger or not:

* I can't rev it up high - cause the engine will blow up!

* I can't take corners real fast - cause it will wear out the tires!

* I can't pass other cars - cause we will crash and die!

So, I just keep the tank pretty much full ....... and .......
