There was no "Look at me - I pulled a Kramer and Failed" sign posted.

So that's the kind of treatment you guys hand out? Tough crowd.
Doesn't matter what the other people think happened to his car. Were they inconvenienced and potentially put in the path of unnecessary harm? Yes. The fact that he's complaining about it after making a conscious decision to basically see how far his car could go on a tank (with reserve light on for days?) makes it that much more dramatic. Live life on the edge, I guess...

Not sure how one is supposed to give sympathy in that situation (point of a self-described rant?).
