Last year I took a trip to Colorado for my hunting trip and I was able to drive approximately 25 miles past 0. When I finally stopped and filled up I was able to put 34.5 gallons in (I kept filling until fuel spilled out to make sure I had 36 gallons in there. I also did this before I left as well). So, I imagine that I could have gone 700 miles on a 36 gallon tank and about 55 miles or so past "0 miles until empty".

Is empty really empty?
My warning light to comes on at 100 miles until empty. Around town that 100 can change to 68 after just a few hills and stop lights. It can also go back up to 150 just as suddenly. Even after running it down to single digits I have only been able to put 34 gallons back in. I always reset one of the trip computers so I can see how many gallons I have used for peace of mind.

I always fill up at ¼. The fuel pump needs the fuel as a coolant. Don't like shortening the life span of a very expensive part.

That said, I have never and will never let it get down to single digits.
