Backed off a 600 mile tank
I had my first full tank over 50mpg ending at 577 miles when I filled it up. Long story short I had to put 10.5 gallons in and it seems like I had enough to make 600 miles then the fuel bars started to go really quick climbing up the Sepulveda pass to get in the valley. Before I knew it I didn't have any more bars left and I started to get a bad feeling driving with no bars of fuel. I've run out of gas before and didn't feel like walking on the side of the freeway as with previous cars. After thinking about it this car is dangerous it has the ability to have an extremely wide range of distance you can travel or not til empty. My Scion has a range of about 350-380 miles on a tank(30 mile difference between high/low FE). This car has a range of about 430-700 per tank(270 mile difference). I arrived at this by the lowest mpg to the highest on the site. Anyone else find this scary if you decide to push the tank alittle?
