    So my last bar starts to flash my screen says "add fuel" ok I say ok i will fill up. So I fill up it takes 8.4 gallons ( pump clicks right at $16.60 so I do not put more in) Hmmm? I turn on car and fuel gauge goes right up to full? Something is not right I never have filled up with 8 gallons before? I am thinking the tank is not really filled up but the gauge says full? I traveled 487.5 miles since last fill up so that makes it 58MPG!!! Wow is this true did I do it? I did travel alot with no air and did travel to areas I don't usually go to?Hmm? Can I do it again?

    i can nearly always get at least another gallon or two after the first click off if i try to. (i dont anymore... the possibility of spilling fuel isnt worth the additional 50 mile range to me anymore)
