thats because idiots have them the fuel light comes on well in advance. i always reset the trip when mine comes on and as a rule i don't go past 30 miles before filling it up.

between 100 and 150 depending on how i feel

Does anyone know at what point the light comes on? IE: How much fuel is left when the light comes on? Also, do I have to press a button to get it to stop yelling FUEL! at me? lol

If you hit the mode button it will stop flashing. Then it will come on solid when it gets super low. I do not know how far you can go, but I went 30mi on the highway once with it on, and when I finally got gas it was 4.2g to fill it up.

Thanks

I do search most of the questions I have since I'm certainly no n00b, but most of the time it's just easier to ask when a discussion is already going on, not starting a new thread.
