·Well, I filled up for the second time and was trying to calculate my mileage, I noticed two things. First for those of you that don't know, we are not allowed to pump our own gas in Oregon :roll: Last week when I got my first purchased tank, after the initial dealer fill up,I asked the attendant to top it off so I could get an accurate mileage reading. He took topping off to mean round up to the nearest dollar after the hose clicks. Well that was only a few more clicks to the next dollar and I didn't say anything. This week I asked the guy to top it off and he asked me if that meant to the next dollar or as far as it would go. He was actually able to pump another $2.00 worth of gas in the 15.9 gallon tank after the hose had shut off. That is roughly another gallon of gas. $1.999 is what the cost was today. Well based on what he pumped in I got 23 miles per gallon on that tank. I don't think it is accurate though because of what I stated above. I will have to get the next guy to do exactly what the guy did today. Anyway, I was within a couple of miles from the station when the fuel light came on. There is approximatley two gallons of gas still in the tank when it comes on.
I put in 13.8 gallons.
