Ok, a little spoiler alert for people actualy interested in this.
So I just did a quest where my potential rewards were either a one day only flying jet squirel (the vehicle not an actual squirel) or better fuel for my curret vehicle.
Now I chose the fuel [Liquid Fuel S3] which gives me a 75% speed boost while I'm on the vehicle so I thought I would delete my old fuel [EV Liquid Fuel S2] (which gave me only 38% speed boost) but I seem to be unable to do that.
I just click "ok" on the delete button from my inventory but it never leaves my inventory.
I'm the sort of guy who forgets to empty his inventory until an annotation tells me that it's full so an extra inventory slot would be really useful.
