Don't have enough gauges in your vehicle?

[wyntrout]

You can probably turn off the beeps. I filled up my tank with gas cans the other day so I could get fresh gas for my generator for hurricane season. I have 6 of those 5-gallon cans. I thought 10 gallons would do it, but I put two whole 5-gallon cans and parts of several others until the gas level was about to overflow. I then set the tank level at 31 gallons, but I'm sure that the tank holds more than that, being polypropylene and "stretchy". I can run my tank down to empty and the warning light comes on... with a beep... but then I only can add about 27 gallons or so until the pump shuts off. I want to see how this gauge keeps up with the fuel level. It's amazing all of the gauge readouts that you can have or check with this thing. I used to nearly run out of gas a lot in our Ford Aerostar vans when traveling because I would wait too long or go too far looking for a better gas price. Now I have GasBuddy on my smartphone. I've been putting low-priced stations and rest areas in my GPS for years for future use.

One time I really waited too long and the van was sputtering and quitting. I had to sway it side to side to get some gas to the pickup level... that and coast some. I just barely got to a station as the engine quit in that instance. Wifey wasn't happy!

I know now that my 2005 Savana still has almost 4 gallons at "empty" with the fuel light on... 50 miles or so... maybe... to go.

I hear ya bawann, I absolutely hate all the digital beeps, noises, ding dongs and obnoxious cell phone rings some idiots have which is just noise pollution in todays digital world...When I open my front door a loud voice says FRONT DOOR OPEN like I didn't already know that and even my frickin refrigerator has a digital voice that says "Door Open beep beep beep Door Open" if you stand there too long looking for something.....

One of the few things I like about being near deaf is that my 12 year old Chevy Pickup still sounds like a brand new one, quiet as can be...My son will say dad what's that squealing noise and I just smile and say what noise, I don't hear a thing?.....

Boy I know about that hearing thing. Even on my riding lawnmower back when the muffler fell off, I just turn off the hearing aid and it's like one of them Lincoln Continental commercials. Not a sound. Put a new muffler on and even with the hearing aid on it's still a luxury mower for sure.

My son does the same thing, some of them squealing noises can be important. I tell him it sounds fine to me, your the mechanic, you tell me. Loudly please.

He don't hardly talk to me anymore. No patience for the hearing impaired and wife isn't far behind. I think she's ready to show me the door and I'm ok with that.

During my house water leak he said he's heard it spraying for quite awhile. I inquired if he didn't think that might be a noteworthy event worth sharing with me so I could get it fixed. He just shrugged.

Got an 8,000 dollar estimate to fix and insurance said no pay, too old of damage. I luv insurance.
