Its an "idiot gauge" with a lot of extra room.

I think the most i've ever pumped is 15.5 gallons and that is REALLY pushing it.

When the light goes on empty you have exactly 3 gallons left in the tank. My car is guaranteed to go 200 miles on 14 gallons. (All LA traffic). I always reset my trip to 0 that way i know exactly how many miles I have left.

Roughly 3 gallons, I've filled up with 13.x once the light was on with a little bit (~20 miles) of driving.
