Gas:
41 Ford
One day on my way back from Barton Springs (Austin Texas) I ran out of gas. A LONG WALK!
It doesn't cost a penny more, AND there is that much less room for condensation to form in your gas tank.

My first car was a 1941 Ford with the "suicide doors." I was one of those "$1 a lick" guys when it came to gassing up.
$1/0.19 = 5 1/4 Gallons.
The price had jumped from $0.19 clear to $0.25/gal so it was a squeeze on the pocket book.
$1/0.25 = 4 gallons.
Still, at 20 mpg X 4 = 80 miles before I had to worry about gassing up again.

Tip: Always drive on the TOP HALF of the tank!
