There are a number of subforums here that don't have the Z as a primary topic, like the off-topic forum, the regional forum, etc. Also, I got a couple hundred posts without having a Z, and I'm one of those people who only posts occasionally.

Listen buddy, for a new guy on this site (First time I`ve seen one of your posts btw) you seem to know it all dont you!

Someone is asking a legitimate question, and all you can seem to do is insult that person, and those trying to actually help him.
I must ask, WHY?

Are you 16 and have nothing to do this afternoon other than flamming other members?
Or are you in your 80`s and just a cynile (sp) old son of a B****?

Regardless, there`s no need to conduct oneself in that manner. I would suggest you get an account at redliners.com if you like to be disrespectfull, and flame others....

I just got the Z so I haven't filled her up yet. I put 100 miles on it in 3 days of ownership. Had fulltank and now its close to half tank gauge. To answer your question, I will fill her up either between half tank and quarter tank. I fill my camry when it was half-tank just out of habbit. I don't like to drive to quarter tank and lower 'cause how know how much gunk from the bottom of the fuel tank you'll put putting back into the filter.

I drive mine until the low fuel light comes on the fill up. I don't like stopping for gas.

Hey thanks for the talk dad... I guess I better tighten up and fly right eh?

And if you need to know.. Im not 16, nor am I 80... you should spend some time broadening your horizons, you will find there are *******s of all ages.

And I took the priveledge of being the first a-hole to call this guy out about his refueling question in order to boost my post count so shallow folks like yourself will stop looking at my post count in order to make a judgement.

If I had the time to look at the TOU before joining I would have to subscibe myself to sitting here all afternoon to police the forums and make sure a-holes stopped being a-holes. Instead, I gave you that opportunity. No disrespect to you as I have to assume you carry authority with 800+ posts, but this was not a legitimate question. If it was, I have underestimated the common sense of the average driver.

Your welcome son, and yes keep the sunny side up!

That we can agree about.

And I took the priveledge of being the first a-hole to call this guy out about his refueling question in order to boost my post count so shallow folks like yourself will stop looking at my post count in order to make a judgement.
Now why call him out? It sounded like a legitimate question to me... Sure there have been threads like this one in the past (He could have used the search function) but geez, if your not a kid, and not a cynile old man, than lighten the hell up brother. FYI, I`m fairly new here too, and I simply called you a new guy based on the date that you joined, I could care less about total postcounts.

If I had the time to look at the TOU before joining I would have to subscibe myself to sitting here all afternoon to police the forums and make sure a-holes stopped being a-holes. Instead, I gave you that opportunity. No disrespect to you as I have to assume you carry authority with 800+ posts, but this was not a legitimate question.

Read the TOU (It will take all of 2 mins)!
Its not a case of policing, rather my asking you to calm yourself down, and give the original poster a break.
There are no stupid questions, only stupid awnsers.

I never let my tank get below 1/4 left. Living in an area where it might snow you always want to be careful on how much fuel you have in case to end up stranded.
Same here ..... I think that about covers it.

Lol !!! Now that's a man with a plan.

Yeah, I'll admit it .... my wife has bailed me out once or twice to.
It's nice to have a back up plan and a cellphone.
