Pre-Paid tank of fuel rip-off

Agreed Joolie - we've always obtained a receipt when topping off, just in case.

I appreciate it's a personal choice, pre-pay full tank or no, but as we drive up from SW Fla I wouldn't want to be fussing on calculating what I need in the tank or try to run a rental back in on fumes with so many petrol stations around.

We are going to take it back full for this reason, well have to go on google earth to find nearest garage to airport.

Hi Paul - do you take the 417 to the airport? If so the closest, and easiest we find, is... turn right at the bottom of the 417 ramp onto Boggy Creek Road, drive approx 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile to the Circle K on your right - has average prices, not a gouger

Use the sat nav find a gas station outside MCO and fill till the "F" line... easy... or are most dibbers still guessing directions after truck loads of advice?

That's like me. I fill up on the 192 and return the car back to MCO and the gauge hasn't moved. Plus it's the only and last filling station I see before hitting the 417 and the garage at MCO.
But before I get flamed, when I collect the car I don't know exactly what's in the tank so the person before me has done the same.
If I could check to see that the tank is full to the brim then I'd top up with 2 bucks at the Airport when I returned it.
