Default Draining gas tank
Anyone every drain theirs?
I need to get the gas out before I pull it. Because gas is heavier than one would think.

That won't work. Most modern cars including the F-TYPE has an anti-siphon mechanism in the fuel filler neck.

I find driving the car drains the tank quite quickly!
