Is that to avoid refilling in places where the fuel is more expensive or just to avoid the hassle? Do people like to drive 500 miles without stopping?

- m_mueller 13y agoOne issue might be the price differences for petrol across the countries. As an example, many Italians near the border like to fill their tanks in Switzerland. The bigger the tank, the longer you can run with it.
- arethuza 13y agoWell, a weekend for me might involve driving 150-200 miles to the middle of nowhere (literally) walking or skiing and then driving back - with very few filling stations for most of that distance and then most of them being small rural businesses that close early (especially on a Sunday). [NB I walk to work, my wife walks to work and my son walks to school - we even do a lot of our shopping by walking - I wouldn't pretend our car usage patterns are typical].
