What's your funniest vehicle story?

About 8 years ago the ex, our family and a couple that we knew all took a vacation to New Orleans.  Since my family lives down there I was use to driving and knew just about how far I could go before my van needed a fill up.  As we got into Mississippi the ex asked me if we had enough gas to get to Jackson.  I told him we should but stop in Granada just in case which is half way between Jackson and Memphis.  I fell asleep the next thing I knew there was a conversation coming from the front of the van.  “She said to stop in Granada but no you just had to keep going.”  “But she said that we should have enough to get us to Jackson”  “Yea but she said to stop in Granada cause of the extra weight in the van.”  Well we ran out of gas, at 3:00 am.  As my ex and everyone else was saying what should we do.  I called the 1-800 number for the roadside assistance and had to pay $60 for a gallon of gas.
