Angry fuel gauge

i noticed that right when i fill up the tank... within minutes the fuel gauge already goes down.. even when I haven't really driven anywhere.. whats up with this does it waste that much gas right away?

the gauge reads low very early..the gaslight comes on when you h ave 4-4.5 gallons left in the tank...i drove for a whole day with the gaslight on this week and still only filled up 14 gallons! You'll get used to it before long though

:P
That pisses me off too. I get about 10 clicks and the needle is already heading back down. I like a gauge that stays buried at F even after an hour of driving. Maybe I should start shifting sooner....NAH!!!
