    Gas saver? Pot makes gas gauge read half full


    Posted: 59 minutes ago
    SANDY, Utah — A stash of grass can take the place of a lot of gas, but it won't do anything for mileage. A Utah man took his newly acquired used SUV to a mechanic to find out why the gas gauge always read half-full.
    The mechanic in Sandy looked inside the gas tank and found about 35 pounds of marijuana in plastic-wrap packages that filled about half of the tank's volume. Police estimate the pot is worth about $35,000.
    The Nissan Armada has had several different owners and was once a rental car. Sandy police are trying to figure out who stashed the pot but say the current owner is not a suspect. Investigators in the town south of Salt Lake City say the drug packs could have been in the tank for months.

    :iagree::lol::iagree: What got me is where the police HAD to tell reporters the present owner wasn't a suspect - like he'd forget about 35 pounds of grass in his gas tank. . .you'd have to be really freaking stoned to forget that lil tidbit.

    It would not be the first time a dumb crook did something like that though.
