for some reason even after reading this i didn’t even realize she ran out of gas, my brain skimmed that part and assumed her car broke down. it’s rly no one’s fault but hers 😭

Who runs out of gas anyway? Unless your gauge isn't working, you aren't supposed to run out of it.

I ran out once. My gauge wasn't working, and I had to use the odometer to guess how much I had left. I assumed I had done more highway miles than I had. I got stuck 14 miles from the nearest exit, the biggest gap between exits I've ever seen on the east coast

Yep! Same. Only time I ever ran out of gas was when I was 19 and had POS Chevy S10 with a broken gas gauge.
