Ran a few errands on Sunday, one of them was get some gas for the mower.....took the car becase the burb is having issues.
Carried the groceries in, put stuff away, got dinner going....... neighbors stopped by...... completely forgot about the full 6 gallon gas can in the trunk of the car.
Went out for dinner last night, driving back to work on a very rough road, oblivious to the volatile cargo in the trunk.... suddenly smelled gas.... wth! Old car, thought fuel line or something leaking, nope, nothing on ground, nothing in engine bay..... finally thought to open the trunk...... 6 gallon gas can only has about 1/2 gallon left in it.
The rest... spare tire well full, carpet soaked a bunch up.... and worst part... some ran forward under the back seat.... about the only way you could stink up a car worse would be to leave something dead under the seat or let a skunk spray inside.
Could have been worse I guess, I didn't burst into flames or blow up. Could have been exciting being I'm still a smoker.
