Has anyone ran a '04 or '05 Prius out of gas? I've been told if I do, I've have to have the car towed to a Prius dealer for correction.
The only reason I bring up the subject is that I would like to "test" the famous Prius gas gauge to it's limit, but I don't want to buy one of those $10 a mile tows or whatever the tow sharks charge. If this were a normal car, I would just coast to the shoulder, open the trunk and pour in a gallon or two and then proceed to the nearest gas station for a fill-up.
If anyone has ran out of gas, were they able to get going again without a tow to the dealer?
