PSA: 0 Miles to empty is probably pretty accurate

I pulled into my local station right when it hit 0 miles to empty on the info system. I proceeded to put 21.6 gallons in the 4dr OBX, and that was the automatic click on the pump handle! I did another .15 to full for 21.75. Unlike my Toyota which can easily go another 20 miles after the "zero" message, I don't think there is much wiggle room on the Bronco. Unless you like life on the edge, be aware. :)

Good. Our Expedition is pretty accurate. My wife's F-150 is way off and it drives her nuts.

Reminds me of a Seinfeld episode.

One thing I hate about the RC8R is that after you fill the tank, it still shows low fuel for five minutes of riding to "prove" to the brain that it's actually full, and not just a little gas swishing up on each side of the tank around curves. Somehow that low fuel indicator canā€™t get out of my line of sight and it's so distracting. It also only gets 20 miles MAX after warning light goes on.

I would advise against filling past the click. Itā€™s very common for this to ruin the EVAP system and cause a check engine light.
I was always taught you are supposed to let the pump click 3 times to get the most consistent fill without overfilling.
