What does the gas light look like? I've never had one come one... the most
I've ever had to put in my 96 Dak was just over 21 gallons...

Same with my 99 and a 22 gal tank. I get my light on with about 5 gallons
in the tank or about 245 (ummm....I only get about 14-15mpg city) on the
odometer DTE is usually about 41 miles but I have stretched it out to as
many as 100 miles with the low fuel light on......kids don't try this on the
road!!!!!
