Oddly enough, both Toyota's. First up: 2008 Scion xD, towed in after dying in flight. At first, it cranked like it was flooded. I pulled the plugs, they were soaked. After replacement, it ran briefly before stalling again. Further diagnostics revealed no fuel pressure at the rail, with the digital fuel gauge indicating 2 "bars".
While attempting to remove the LR seat to access the fuel pump for testing, one of the E10 Torx bolts stripped. I tried twist sockets, welding a nut to the stub, everything. I gave up and chose to drop the tank, which I discovered was DRY! All that work and it was out of fuel...
Second subject: whatever year Prius V. Towed in with engine noise and a no start. HV battery showing 1 bar on the dash, fuel gauge showing one bar, and 2 quarts low on oil. Again, out of gas. After throwing in a couple gallons, changing the oil, and idling to allow the HV battery to charge it was fine.
Mistakes such as these give me pause, given the ease with which one can apply and be approved to drive a vehicle.
