Where can you buy fuel in 200 gallon barrels in retail?
I would suggest you think your responses trough before
you hit the send button...

I am sure you have technical skills to get up from the
couch and walk to the TV to change the channel but you
still think it is very convenient to use the remote...
It is not that I cannot put the cap back on the bottle
and store the bottle - I just see it as very inconvenient.
If it was - let's say - half bottle left unused - then
I would understand, but we are talking about 10-15%.
Do they REALLY had such a hard time squizing this extra
pint into the very slightly bigger reservoir? Doubt it.
They just did not care. Lack of attention to details?

For the second time I needed to refil washer fluid in
my 2004 accord coupe. I got the 1 gallon jug from the
store when the washer nozzles stopped delivering fluid.
Poured the bottle but before the bottle was empty
the container in the car was full and overflowing.
2-3 inches of the fluid left unused in the bottle.
Is this what you get? Or my pump is not sucking all
the fluid from the container?
Why would you design a car with a washer fluid
container just smaller than the widely available
container the fluid is sold in the stores?
Would you consider it as a bad design?
