I ran my ole Freightliner out of fuel one time that was the last that happened. It had a Cummins in it & primed itself,got lucky there. Thought I'd get to Indianapolis where fuel was cheaper,it was but 5 gal. carried up a hill about 1000 yards is heavy. Then pourin' it in on the interstate with traffic buzzin' by tryin' ta pour it in the fuel tank without spillin' it everywhere ain't fun.From then on every 500 ta 600 mile I fueled any way. Got 33 degrees now........heat wave

I think it's a federal thing so they can put a leash up your rear and keep an eye on you.
