Running out of fuel

still a novice in the T circle, just short runs so far. but with no warning light, chime, or so much as a visible gas gauge or odometer... how do the rest of you deal with not running out of gas? I would have thought the sediment bowl as used on 1909 - 1925 models would have had a 'reserve' position, such as on motorcycles and such. is there a preferred SAFE method of packing extra fuel?

I have had my 1914 for six years now. I check the fuel level before I take it on the road. I have a 5 gallon gas can in the garage and keep the tank over half full all the time. Also, I find that the last 2-3 in. of gas in the tank is almost worthless because there is not enough fuel flow to the carb on hills to keep the car running trouble free. It takes time to get to know the car and after six years, I still carry my cell phone when I am in it! Ed
