[QUOTE="ogdobber, post: 1433527, member: 22629"] The range and fuel light aren't reliable. It uses the amount of fuel in the tank with your current driving (habits) and it does a calculation (also it doesn't update very quickly if things change). Pretty good on a flat highway, but if you are going down a steep hill, all the gas will go to the front off the tank and and it will read low... Fuel light on, and no range... What is reliable is "fuel used" on the trip meter. (Assuming you reset it on a full tank fill-up) My fuel light will come on after using 30 gallons and i will have "0 range" after 32 gallons used. Of course i have a 36 gallon tank so i know in that situation have 4 gallons left and can easily squeak out 50 miles to a gas station if needed. Also it's a gas truck, so it's not the end of the world to run em out of gas ;) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro [/QUOTE]
