36 Mile Adventure

I drove to mastic long island from queens one night,and I used my mothers 2002 Ford Escape because I knew it could handle the weather better than my little Nissan.when I wgot to Mastif I went to the gas station and realized that I forgot to bring the key for the fuel cap on the vehicle,so I couldn't add anymore gas! The tank was very low so I went onto this site to see how far I could make it with the fuel light on.After reading the stories on here,I decided to just take my chances,drive at 55 mph,and pray my butt off (just like all the other stories say).Mastic Li to Queens NY is 55 miles (atleast that's what my gps system said),and the fuel light didn't come on until there was 36 miles left.I was very nervous but I made it the whole way home.so I just wanna say thank you to this site for giving me the info and courage to try to make it home with an empty tank.
