Dodged auto repair bullet

I mentioned ailing car.   Well, car was given to me from family member and been in my possession only 5 weeks.   I've been raving about the wonderful gas mileage.... Last fill was 12-24-13!   I don't travel far each day but I do go out several times a week so I was mighty impressed.  

No one told me the gas gauge was off by 1/8 of a tank...I simply was out of gas.   I was jumping for joy at the simplicity!!   The  roadside assistance dude looked at me like I had lost my mind.

Its the small things in the life of a fixed income maven.
