The only reason I use the method I described is just as a means of knowing approximately how many more miles I can go before filling up. By no means do I use it to try to get the last drop of gas used before filling up. I think it is silly to do that. I fill up on the way in to work at a gas station near my workplace. I might use that range estimation method to decide if I should fill up today or if I can get home and back to work tomorrow. If I think it is going to be too close, I will fill up today and not take the chance. Tom P.S. I have kept track of every gallon of gas that I have put in my Yaris since I bought it one year ago. The average number of gallons that I have bought per fill-up is 7.822, and the most it ever took to fill it was 9.50 gallons, so I am not trying to run the tank too low. |
