Does anyone know how many miles you can go on the last bar? My fear of walking has always kept me from going down to the last bar.

So how many people are going to ask about the last bar? It's been talked to death.

It's approximately ONE GALLON when the 2nd to last bar disappears leaving the last blinking bar. So figure 30-40 miles to go. But don't test this.

If this has been asked before.....sorry!

The last bar...

Howdy folks,

Just thought I'd throw this in as my first "O"-fficial post since joining the group.

In my '09 2-door liftback owner's manual it mentions this about "The Last Bar" and I'll paraphrase.

When you get to the last bar, it begins to blink slowly when there is approx. 1.6 gallons remaining and it begins blinking faster when the level drops to approx. 1 gallon.

Last week I wasn't paying attention to my gas gauge on the way to work and coasted into the parking lot here with the gauge flashing on the last bar. Fortunately I had enough left and was able to get to the gas station on my lunch break.

So... yeah, you'd best be looking for some go-go juice when you get down that far.

S.R.
