My fuel light came on this morning and I'm debating on filling up tonight or tomorrow. 472 miles so far with a 26.3 mile commute home would put me at a 500+ miles tank by the time I make it back down the hill to the nearest gas station. Then again, it might also run me out. My SG is off a little this tank (I drove away from the pump and didn't reset the fill up until I got home), so I can't rely on the gallons remaining. I'll see what it looks like after baking in the sun for the day. Generally that's enough to bring the gauge up an 1/8th tank and while it's not really any more gas, it just might make me cocky enough to press my luck. Fortuntately, the gas station is downhill from the house.
