Putting a couple gallons into the car over and over is silly - but there is something to be said about keeping the tank on the lower end (well, not full anyways). Gas can add a lot of weight to the car. I know people who swear by only keeping the tank half full and they see a 'big' improvement in their MPGs. They also feel the car performs better (it's lighter). Plus they say it keeps the gas fresher, especially in a car that sits for extended periods.

Not sure how accurate it is, but the belief is out there.
