    That's great! I have had close to 200 miles on the first pip. After that, it goes down 'quicker'.

    In warm weather I've made it to 170 miles. However, in cold weather I'm lucky to make 70. This is the result of having a bladder in the tank.

    Im only on my second tank but do wonder if the gauge is anything like accurate. It seems to take a long time to move to the second pip but after that it goes quicker.

    It's more of a "Guess" gauge...

    my previous car was like that. I would drive for about 80 - 100 miles before the needle would get down below the F. After that every quarter of the tank took about 100 miles.
