I wouldn't ride out a storm with just a 1/4 tank but I wouldn't feel the need to top off a 3/4 tank.

In case of emergency 1/4 tank won’t get you very far with heavy traffic and conditions of roads. Especially if don’t have fuel efficient vehicles. I use have big ford truck with two tanks (why two tanks? So you could go almost same distance as normal vehicle) I could see gas gage down down going 10 miles. Large SUVs not much better than 10 miles to gallon.
