I wasn't empty. True, it only has the 30 gallon tank, but hurts when you typically only put in 15-16gallons in your DD...

Mine passed $70 one time from empty. I planned on filling it, but had to stop at $75 because I wasn't sure how high it was going to go, and I didn't wanna spend all my money lol.
On average I put $60 in and it gives me around 3/4 of a tank. $20 gave me just over 1/4 this morning.

That just blew my mind.


$20 gets me somewhere between a half-3/4 of a tank. Once I even filled up for 28 bucks from empty when gas went real low for some reason.

Generally I wait for the low fuel light to come on before I put gas in.

So do i but, my low fuel light comes on at 1/4 tank so...haha its been recalled and my gauge basically goes from 1/2 - 1/4 in a snap, but my "km to empty" is always right. So i go by that.

yeah, try putting in 55 L (14.5 gal) of diesel in my Jetta, then going right back and sticking in 150+ L (40 gal) of diesel in my 'Burb!

only really good thing about the 'Burb, a full tank lasts me for a week long trip up North (aprox 300 miles each way) and 2 runs into town (95 miles total), and still make it back to work the following Monday (45 miles)-and it's still not empty!

wish my Blazer got a good mileage.
