Tank on Empty

YUGO

Ok, they didn't have a category for YUGO so I chose Honda! Does anyone remember YUGOS?? They were a very, very small car. I looked as big as Hulk Hogan in my YUGO and I'm only 5ft 6in. that's how small they are.

Anyway, I was on empty when I left for work. I drove 12 miles to work, then after work I was so sleepy that I drove home, but not before stopping to grab a burger. They took soooo long to make the burger that I thought I was going to run out while sitting in the drive thru!! Argh!

So I got my burger and started driving home, when all of a sudden a dog shot out in front of my car and I slammed on my brakes. I did not hit the doggie but the owner was mad at me for driving too fast and she yelled at me. I thought if I drive fast, then I'll get home before I run out of gas.

Anway, about 5 miles from home my YUGO started sputtering and I was finally out!! But as luck would have it I was 1/2 mile away from a Shamrock station and I coasted right up into the gas station!! I went 39 miles!! See ya! (true story) sholstein2003@yahoo.com

I had a Yugo Iroc. Used to pass any car that was parked like it was standing still.
