Do Yourself a Favor: Keep a Full Gas Tank

There are millions of cars and trucks that will be on the roads this winter. If you are driving without a full fuel tank, you may be doing yourself a disservice. Driving with a fuel tank that is not topped off makes a driver unprepared in the winter months if they end up in a situation where they need that valuable fluid.

Being stranded and driving in bad road conditions are two times when having a full tank of gas can be a huge benefit to that driver. More fuel in the tank when stranded means more of an opportunity for the driver to get their car unstuck themselves instead of having to pay a tow truck driver hard-earned cash to do it for them.

Gasoline can also be used as a ballast to make a vehicle heavier so that it can grip on to the road much more effectively. We here at the Autobahn Motors Mercedes-Benz service station hope that you start to keep your fuel tanks filled this winter.
