As an FYI, my mechanic showed me the fuel pump inside the tank and said, "See that? It needs fuel all around it to remain cool and not overheat. That's why you should never drive below a 1/4 of a tank unless you're in an emergency situation, and that's why your empty tank dummy light kicks on at 1/4."
Just thought you guys might like to know this.
BTW, I get 250 miles per tank in town (fill up to 1/4 reading when the light turns on). I can get nearly 300 miles on the freeway at 70 mph.
