Spotted @cruiser4life in the hills of VA. Awesome day of exploring backroads.

Getting food from capiche. I dont have time to work out. 😜
What were you doing at the Y? You don't work out; you don't have the time!
 
I spotted a built, black 80 in BFE Virginia today from the side of 29 South. I know he saw me, too, because we locked eyes as he drove past me going north, after seeing my 470's frantic headlight flashes in my vain attempt to summon possible help from him since I was sitting there 'almost fully' on the shoulder with an empty gas tank in the approaching wintery mix weather. No dice. AAA showed up 2 hours later (only 55 minutes after they should have).

Trying to see something positive about today's adventure, I'll say that at least the first gas station I came to after that had the 2nd lowest prices for over 300 miles! Oh, and I was still working on my long overdue lunch of a Roy Roger's Double-R-Bar Burger. I'd've been hungry enough to eat a floor mat during the wait had it not been for that. Mmmmh, ham and burger and cheese.

hey - at least you know how far you can go in the 470 now ;).......
 
Dang John. Time for a sub-tank...
That sucks about the no cruiser love situation. Lost connection? Perhaps or maybe they were over landing and looking at their photos to post on the gram?

Maybe black cruisers do matter?!?! Especially when in BFE with no gas.

I like to think that he just assumed I could read his mind and that he was going home to get his trailer to tow me to his garage...in Maryland.
 
56 miles after the light comes on (actual reading, not tire size corrected)!
Nice - I've heard that it's roughly 5 gallons left in the 100/470 when the light comes on - I've gone 40 miles after the light has gone on, but no more than that.....
 
Yeah, 80’s and 100’s are 5-gallon warnings. On the road, I usually give myself no more than 40 miles from the light. Off road, I get scared giving even 5!
🤣🤣🤣 on my 60 I start getting nervous around 1/4 tank around town!
