that is my 1 pet peeve on my dakota.. man, when I see that fuel light lit,
I'm hunting hard for a gas station cause I know I ain't getting far!! When
that needle hits the line at E, you have passed the point of running on
fumes (ie: pressing accelerator doesn't do one good bit!)... remember with
my Probe (4 banger of course), when I was coming up on E, get probably
another 75miles out of it... now.. uhhhh 20?? if I'm lucky... Course... my
probe would get 40mpg on hwy.. so..hehe
