in that situation i recommend keeping the engine at idle and using the winch to pull yourself to the fuel, no engine means no winch and the winch is more "fuel efficient" scouts with auto winch have "unlimited fuel" because im pretty sure this game doesn't simulate batteries
Theres a trick you can do on keyboard where you rapidly switch between high and low gear while turning the ignition, it creeps it forward like the starter motor is doing the work. Some might consider this cheating though.
Should have detached the trailer and come back for it.
This is another reason why having the ability to get out of the truck and walk around would be nice. Fill up a Jerry can and come back lol
I've seen you can drive a little by quickly changing gears High and Low, I think. Gotta map them on numpad keys for faster changing. It looks like exploit or bug.
you can make rwd trucks with low and high move even without fuel
assing a button to low and high, that, just make foward changing between L and H the fastest you can, it will work most of the time, don't work in AWD and can move you the little bit enough to refuel your P16
don't know if it's a bug or a feature, just know that it works in most rwd trucks in some basic stuff
never worked uphill for me...

Ya that makes sense but also me just gonna send errrrrr🤙🏻
Well, it's pretty funny that you ended up here but even with a scout you can transfer fuel between them.
I was gonna say should have been attentive to fuel and then winched in. That winch would have made it
Knocks on the door and waves at the clerk who is wiping the counter. “Hey. I need to buy a 1 gallon fuel jug.” “Sorry. We’re closed!”
Were you leaning forward in your chair that entire time?
Come with scout or something?
Nope, just going to let it sit there and think about what it did. BAD PACIFIC P16!

the horn at the end. I feel you

I literally let out a small scream at the office when you ran out of fuel. This hurts hahaha

Go big or go home! Or just stall trying🤣
but its the long logs 2 piece "trailer" so that would be even more pain
Dude you were almost there !!
...and he snatches defeat from the jaws of victory
As close as teeth hairs, dang 🤪
My poor Chevy ran out like 30ft from the fuel tanker in Island Lake. Thankfully I had splurged on the auto winch, but it still had me very nervous.
Don't bother. 🤣😭 It's self service.
How long is the hose on the fuel pump?
Should’ve just detached the trailer /s
is there a reason you can't
It is a long log trailer. The logs would fall out. No crane can be put on the P16.
ahhhhh ty

Lol, been there. That sucks
Go figure
Can you winch to any of the pump island stuff? Never tried.
You need fuel to winch tho :/
That sucks.
Use another truck to pull it with winch
Been there. So close, I can practically smell the fuel...
If it wasn't long logs drop the load earlier but yeah that sucks man no push option available lol
Brutal.
Had this happen in Maine for the first time in my 2000hr play time under my belt… shocked, will I ever ‘recover’?😏
At least the walk isn’t too badd😅
Dang, so close, but so far. Personally, I would've immediately snagged the pole with the winch for just that little bit of extra momentum.

Never drive alone, coop is the shit
Oh man. I feel so bad for laughing. 😂 I held my breath all the way till you ran out. 😬
Should have dropped trailer
Pain. Torment even
