look I not saying it can or will explode, while you're talking on the cell or it will explore when you leave the engine on while puming. what is chance it explode? 1 out of 100%. I think it better to play safe and then be sorry. you may be lucky this time

yep...its all about statistics.

you drive fast, they'll get you no matter what, its just a matter of time. same with this, you'll fill up tanks all your life, statistics always win. i'm not saying it will happen i am saying you're just playing with fire and for what

I left mine on once, and the SES light came on. Scanned it... evaporative system. the same code that comes up when the gascap isn't tight. Oh yeah, it happened on my old 97 once too. Won't happen again.

cars nowadays are damn quiet, you gotta expect things like that to happen..

what does start fires if that static or whatever, i saw a whole show on it, people get back in there cars while pumping (rubbing there feet on teh floor or whatever, then get back out and grab the pump...it could easily catch the gas on fire...best thing to do is obviously keep the pump in the car...take it out, and KABOOM flaming gas all over haha

This is off topic, but your car is hot. I myself own a white 2k Maxima, and there really isn't much different about it, but damn, your car looks nice in your sig. Makes me think twice about purchasing a body kit.
