Once the little dot lights up how many miles can you travel before your reserve tank completely runs out and your car is really empty?.... last night i drove 13 miles on empty but i filled in this morning I didnt want to push it

SEARCH. Our tanks are 18.5 Gallons, depending on how many gallons you filled, you do the math to see what the difference was and how much was left!

I think the total volume of the fuel tank is 18.5gallon but the max volume for the fuel is only 15.4 gallon or something. Does anyone ever got more than 16 gallon here?

got 18.04 in there once, it was titeeee :P

by the way, its not good to let your fuel dip below 1/4, it puts more strain on the fuel pump cuz it has to get rid of air while sucking in.
