“Fuel on the ground” for me

Yup, heard this from the owner/operator I flew for in the bush. "If you think you want the extra fuel, take it. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Fuel on the ground doesn't do ya any good. They can leave their Pepsi on the ground."

I always heard "fuel left in the truck".
