I’ve read stories about drivers stopping and topping off their model T’s on condensate while driving through the wilds of Texas.

I've heard such stories as late as the 80s. The gaugers, who monitor wells, and make sure the tanks are emptied before they over flow, had a reputation for topping off their trucks with condensate. Of course that was both theft, of the condensate, and evasion of highway motor vehicle fuel taxes.
