have…
half a tank.
That’s a lot of gas!
The car isn’t struggling.
Nothing is flashing.
I’m not pulling over on the side of the road.
I don’t need to change my plans.
I can still go places.
Why would I interrupt whatever I’m doing to get something I already have plenty of?
But then I realized these people aren’t necessarily thinking about the amount of gas they have.
They’re thinking about the amount of gas they might need later.
And that’s a completely different way of looking at it.
