i don't listen to the light, i wait until the needle hits dead on red...then there's another 2 gallon reserve... when i hit dead on red mark, i fill up 15gallons...on a 17.1 gallon tank.
this gets me about 400 miles to the tank...

if i use up all reserve, i get upwards to 430miles... then i fill up close to 16.4 gallons..

this is 75% freeway/25% city. I have a 5AT. AC/on or off periodically.

I usually get 375-400, mixed city/hwy driving. I usually fill up when the MID range readout says I have 10-15 miles worth of gas left in the tank.

If mostly city driving, I get about 350-400 miles on my '04 5AT. I refill when the yellow light comes on (about 13 gallons used). If mostly highway, I get closer to 450-475 miles, doing 70-75 mph. The most I ever got on one tank was 521 miles on 16.1 gallons, almost all highway miles of course.

To and from work only I roll 420 miles between fill ups.

On vacations/trips we'll get 520.

If I beat on it like this week...380.
