Do you fully fill your tank or partial fill?

Waiting until pay-day is about the only reason I see. I just can't stand having much less than a half a tank. Never know when I'm going to have to burn off...never had a fuel system problem in my life.

This + safeway rewards points are a one time thing. You get $1 off a gallon whether you put in 10 gallons or 20 but then the points are gone until you buy more groceries. :mf_pcwhack:

I am lucky that driving to work I use 1 gallon a day, plus few on a normal weekend. I always fill up once a week, the idea of having empty space in my tank does not sit well for some reason.

Not sure about todays gas tanks but back in the day they always said not to run low all the time as this would create water condensation in the tank. I usually run down near a quarter of a tank then fill completely up. One thing I have not seen mentioned is the extra gas and time wasted going to get gas if you fill up with more than half a tank not to mention carrying the extra weight of the gas around all the time.

Half tank ... mainly because the pump trigger lock pops every 30 seconds or so. I get tired of adjusting the handle and starting over.
