Then I get the light at around 300 miles. On a trip, this goes up. If I put my foot in it too many times, it comes down. The gauge is thus not totally linear but is reasonable. It probably has something to do with the gas tank shape.
You know I am not sure if I can follow that....for my car it seems as if from full to 1/2 mark it drops faster than from 1/2 to empty. Anyone else experience that or just me ? lol
