I drive a 2000 Chevy S-10 pickup with a 4.3L V6. This truck once went almost 100 mi with the low fuel light on on a lonely stretch of highway in Utah. The truck is rated to drive about 380 miles on a tank of gas but I am pretty sure I could get 420 under the right conditions. Anyways, the light comes on with 1/4 of a tank remains. I believe this holds 18.3 gallons.
Anyways, I had some REALLY bad gas this one time. The truck was running real rough, had stinky exhaust, and had no power whatsoever. So, I decided to run out as much of this junk gas as possible before filling up. One factor I didn't account for was that the truck was likely burning a lot more of this low quality gas to go the same distance. So, I had gone about 40 miles with the light on and the truck died... just past the entrance ramp for an exit where a gas station was located. We were going on a long trip and had lots of gallon milk jugs filled with water along with a few of the typical skinny plastic water bottles that hold 16 oz. or so.
Anyways, we emptied out one of the water jugs and were shaking out all the residual water out as we walked back up the entrance ramp to the gas station. I made note of a sign on the gas pump stating it was illegal to use unauthorized containers for gas. I knew that both milk jugs and gas cans are made of HDPE plastic so I didn't have to worry about the gas eating the plastic. I figured the main difference was the thickness of the plastic and I was just using this for a short while anyways. So, I inserted a credit card and hoped the attendant inside wouldn't notice the person who just walked up off the street and started filling a milk jug with gasoline.
The highway patrolman escorted us down to the next exit where where we had the choice of an adult bookstore and a run down gas station that didn't appear to be open. Luckily the place was open and I filled the tank to the brim. After that, I went inside to use the restroom. My friend had been in there while I was getting gas and he said, "DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING INSIDE THAT RESTROOM!" Well, he wasn't kidding. I didn't even bother to close the door behind me once I was inside as the place was just covered in an old urine film. The sink was filled with disgusting water and there was a sign warning not to drink the water, like I needed to be told. The best sign (included in the pictures) stated that the restroom was free for your use and you could get cleaning supplies inside if you felt the need to complain. Anyways, the bathroom pictures just don't do the place justice. I have seen some nasty gas station restrooms but this one topped them all.
Um "does it matter" and "karstic"-if you two weren't so lazy u'd look at the pics his friend took-and u would clearly see the milk jug held up. And for the guy who told the story-nice. This would make a funny comedy trip.
I am the one who posted this and it is not a fake. Gas cans are made of High Density Polyethlyene or HDPE for short, which is the same material milk jugs are made from. Gas cans are a whole lot thicker than milk jugs and less likely to leak if scraped, etc. Anyways, many plastics WILL NOT hold up to gasoline even for seconds. I did learn that when trying to use a styrofoam bait cooler to contain a gas spill. The gas just melted it to nothing in a matter of seconds.Conor
That is NOT Fake, I have used plastic milk/water jugs for gasoline before.BTW, that restroom is not so bad, if you travel enough you will see some that will make that one look like a surgical operating room.

You know all the fuss over gas milage is not nessecery. In 1972 I bought a brand new Datsun and it got 32 miles to the gallon in mixed traffic (town and x way) that's 36 years ago people if they could do it then they can do it now. I admit it wasent a fancy car but it got me to work and back it was comfortable and server me well and behind my back three kids were driveing it. The car just didn't have all the bells and whistels they do now, my advice to the auto builders is if you want to stay in buisness take the fancies off make a basic car and get back to the 32 mpg again. Had a friend with the exact car as I did , he came from California, he got 33 miles but admited drafting behind the big trucks...After years of service the motor started burning oil. I didn't know about the kids driveing while I slept. I rebuilt the engine by lifting the motor out by hand and rebuilding it on the picnic table. Now is all the fancies worth it......
You really need some English grammer updating!!! Anyways???? Should be anyway... forget the s. It's such a shame the the TV/Computers/Books etc are teaching our youngsters such poor grammer. We're beginning to sound like a bunch of mountain gorillas
It's spelled 'grammar' rather than 'grammer'. If I were being really pedantic about things, I might mention the absent period after 'gorillas'.To your credit, I'm pleased that pluralization was not carried out by whipping an apostrophe and an 's' at the end of a word.Carry on smartly.
I have some gasoline that's been sitting on my porch for a month in a gallon milk container. Its doing just fine. For the folks who are talking about the containers melting, I think you may be thinking of the cardboard gallon cartons, or perhaps the sort of clear-ish plastic jugs milk occasionally comes in. To the writer of this page: Thanks for posting this; I cruised in from Google, trying to find out if it would be safe to put the gas back in my tank after it being in the gallon jug; it'd be a shame for it to go to waste.
I did the same thing with a Ford Escort. I bought an empty milk jug at a grocery store because the gas station had no gas cans for sale. The milk jug worked perfectly. It is the same plastic just thinner.
I'm not quite sure what's more comedic. The story or the comment's following this story. LOL! Nice one guys.Don't take spelling up the butt on the internet, after all ITS THE INTERNET!! People may be good spellers when they're writing on paper, but its totally different on the Internet (especially on a Comment Section). Pfft. Anal Spellers?
Best use for a real gas container? Hitching a ride! Someone should market carry-bags made to look like gas cans. People who say they'd NEVER stop for a hitchhiker, will stop to rescue a 'stranded motorist' carrying a gas can. I got a ride back to my out-of-gas car by some guy in a Lincoln town car. He'd just passed my car a minute before while going the other direction though, and turned around to get me because he knew I was legit and still had a mile to go back to my car with the heavy gas can. One time I ran out of gas with that old '63 Chevy wagon and ended up driving to the next town on a gallon of denatured alcohol bought at a yard sale when someone got rid of an old mimeograph copier. The exhaust smelled funny, but it got me to the next gas station. I probably risked burning the valves some, but I figured it was the same stuff as "dry-gas" gas line anti-freeze (the alcohol would mix with water that condensed in old style vented gas tanks back then, to help it burn through the engine without causing stalling.)I no longer carry any kind of gas cans in the car. I fill up when the gauge reads 1/3 tank, and figure I have the cell phone and AAA if something else happens. Perhaps I should carry an empty one though, in case of a breakdown in a cell phone dead zone where I might need to hitch a ride? - lol!
Conor's right, the milk jugs will hold gasoline, but styrofoam melts away - probably how napalm is made. In another "wrong can" story, I'm reminded of a camping trip years ago with Boy Scouts when one night, someone was heard shouting "Don't light the lanterns! Don't light the lanterns!" By mistake, someone had filled the kerosene lanterns from a GAS can in the dark (idiots!)Of course, OUR lantern was already lit! And the flame from the wick was getting higher and higher and higher, licking out the vent at the top! We had already turned the wick as low as it would go, and were afraid to lower it any more for fear of dropping it into the tank, so we DID NOT PANIC, and carefully placed the lantern in our rock lined fire pit and spread a old PURE WOOL Navy blanket over it and doused the blanket with all our canteens to wet it down. The wet wool blanket smothered the fire and put it out, while keeping the water from splashing directly onto the hot glass lantern globe which would have cracked it. When it all cooled down, we were able to empty the lantern back into the gas can and refill it properly with kerosene - though we did have to clean a lot of soot from the glass lantern globe. Thankfully, nobody was hurt by the mistake and no other mis-filled lanterns had been lit. (I was the 15 year old patrol leader of our patrol who had both the idea and the wool blanket to put out the fire.)
