Give or take a few bucks, but the economy has been so fickle out here I didn't take one check last year, it all went back into the business to keep the doors open.

It's feast or famine in the construction business, anyway I didn't mean to clog up a good topic, sorry for the slight detour ppl.

Hrm... you tend to overheat the fuel pump when you run the gas low. Fuel injected cars have fuel pumps that were designed to be submerged allowing the fuel to cool the pump. Run it down to the empty light and your fuel pump won't last too long.
