Cool notice new thing about fuel gauge

i don't know if y'all notice this or it's just my car, but i notice each line of the fuel gauge is about 20 mile, there is 20 line so that mean if you fuel up a full tank, you can go for about 400 miles, hope this help.

400miles per tankful is believable. 400mpg is not unless you have the SSSSSSSSSSULEV TL model.

By the way, the fuel gauge is not linear so you can't trust each tick mark to represent a certain amount of gas or drivable distance. Even with the needle halfway between E and F, I doubt you really have half a tank full of gas.

my car can go more than 400mpg, how do i know? because i alway fill up a full tank and reset my odometer, last week i kinda too lazy to put in the gas, so i didn't put in the gas for like 2 week, my gas light came on and i look at the odometer it's like 390 something, so i pull over to put in gas i fill it up about 14 gallons. we have 17.1 gallons in our gas tank right? oh.... by the way i drive about 90% on the freeway
