    Well, I think I pushed my gas range as far as I want to. I came back
from a trip recently and filled up. I was quite amazed to see that my 22
gallon tank took 21.506 gallons of fuel. I knew I was cutting it close as I
pulled into my house at 3 am, but I didn't think it was this close ;-)

    For anyone familiar with the Rt. 95 / Rt. 128 split in MA (exit 12), the
low fuel light came on right at the split. Anyone know how many miles that
is to Cranston? I was too tired to think about it at the time.

    My fuel mileage was 17.1 mpg and the mileage on my trip computer was 368
(if memory serves me correct). This tank was a combination of city (typical
heavy foot) and highway driving (anywhere from normal cruising speeds of
85-100 mph to stop and go on Rt. 128).
