Hamish And Andy Prove That Your Car’s ‘Empty Gas Tank’ Is A Straight Up Lie

Hamish and Andy have done the hard yards and investigated how far you can drive with an ’empty’ tank of petrol. All of our suspicions are confirmed. We are living a lie.

‘Operation: Dry Tank’ gives us some answers to the hotly disputed question: ‘Does empty mean “empty”??’ If you’re ever in the ‘dry tank’ zone and wondering how much leeway there is to keep calm and carry on, take comfort in the fact that Hamish and Andy drove more than 100km on a wildly mislabelled ‘dry’ tank.

This is an epic story of man against the machine, and the result is that machine is a dirty little liar.

Who hasn’t felt the desire to challenge the car’s empty gas tank claims? Hamish and Andy are spot-on about the sassy attitude we are all vibing from the car:

“Any machine that tells you something with certainty has an air of arrogance about it that rubs you the wrong way.”

“Nothing’s more satisfying than proving a machine wrong that’s been tryna tell you how to live”

The boys did not expect to get as far as they did and after well over an hour and a distance of 111km they finally rolled to a stop. It was a beautiful victory that should not be understated.

They leave us with this important message:

“Never trust a machine, even if it may have your best interest at heart”
