I have been there a few times. You can do this with any car(in the past) but if you want to engine brake down a large grade it better be fuel injected. Engine braking with a carburetor is gonna blow your exhaust up as soon as you turn the ignition on. Also engine braking will retain your power brakes whether they are vacuum or hydraulic.

Most new cars are so faggoty you can't even do any of this.

I've rolled into gas stations before after running out of gas. Pretty awesome feeling of relief. This was all moreso when I was younger and broke, only buying gas as needed.

I used to drive around a 79 VW van in high school but I disliked hippies. I started counting after the first time and stopped counting after one hundred times running out of gas because the gas gauge was faulty. I know, I know what a retard to not just fix the gauge but it became sort of a game after the first few times. The funny thing is except for once there always was a gas station near by, or I would roll right into one on fumes bucking like a wild horse. Ahh man those were good times in the early 90's. Totally understand the feeling of relief and being broke, lol.
