Look it up!

Anyways, I usually fill up at the 260 mile mark. My fuel guage is so out of whack, I am never 100% sure how much I have left. But I usually never go over 280 miles.

Yes, that doesn't seem like a ton of miles. But my car averages 16 mpg.]]>May 8th 2008 5:42AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/May 8th 2008 9:18AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/May 8th 2008 5:47PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/

easy general estimate of how far past empty you can go.]]>May 7th 2008 9:00PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/
The Need gas warning comes up on the MID at 30 miles left. I have taken this up to 32 miles PAST THE ZERO. ]]>May 7th 2008 9:04PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/
60 liter tank

gets about 12.9l per 100km on sunoco ultra94

but that's because I drive it like I stole it

It's never been to E before since I fill up when it gets to quarter tank remaining]]>May 7th 2008 9:08PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/07/tankonempty-com-how-far-past-the-slash-can-you-go/
