This photo stresses me out to the max. lol

I have done this a couple times in the last year. Sometimes the funds are not there and you have to push the envelope. I have also left home with 220 miles to empty, driven 120 miles, and still had just under 200 miles to empty when I arrived. My commute to work is .7 miles so it throws my mileage off.

13 miles left? That’s weak sauce.

Ran it 16 miles on empty one time; got down to 2 miles remaining before my last fill up

Reads 0 miles to empty no matter how far you drive on empty; can also make it go back up if you coast well enough, that’s a fun game to play

Youtube algorithm hit me with a video the other day where a guy intentionally ran it out of fuel as a test to see how far beyond 0 he could go.
Ended up driving about 40 miles extra over 2 hours I think.

EDIT:
Found the video...

My wife pulled out of the house with her gauge reading 8 miles the other day to get fuel at costco that is roughly 12 miles away. I was stressed but we ended up making it with no problem.

No photo though lol.

Almost?!? You have 13miles left, lol.
I typically only fill up when it gets below 5. I have pulled into gas stations several times on 1's and once on 0. Drives my wifes nuts. Not my Bronco but my F150:

Not my Bronco (since it hasn't arrived yet), but from my F350. The fun starts when you get to zero!

I've had mine to zero LOL

This is like the limbo, but with vehicles…

How low can you go?

On a single trip back from Off-Rodeo, I had the fuel light come on twice! There are stretches of I-20 that have long stretches of road between fuel stations.

Now, I just plan on fueling up at 1/2 and at all restroom stops during long trips.
