Cutting it a little close

I just filled 18.1 gallons of fuel. Anyone else here filled any more?

How far do you think you drove after the gauge was squarely on Empty?

I suspect that many on this site do not track their gasoline purchases that closely (probably don't keep a record of purchases). Also, those in Canada buy gasoline in liters. My maximum purchase so far (7,800 miles) was 14.71 gallons.

It was hard to tell with all the uphill and downhill driving, but the light was on for about an hour! I got 400 miles for that tank. Just to add- my wife was following me for the last part
