At half, I can sometimes hit the near 300 mark, mostly at around 250-275 at half, Which makes be believe if I try hard enough I can get to 600.... nope, drops like a rock and the fuel light comes on at aproxx 3-4 gallons left (according to the gas pump, I usually fill up when the light comes on, never gotten to the E line yet) , so I'm around 420+ at fuel light, using 19 gallons with about 430 miles is common.

Mite be a ploy for when you test drive a vehicle and the test drivers go,
"Wow, the gas guage hasn't moved a bit"
Yea, that's it, that way they think they're getting great mileage even when their flooring it. But nah, it's just an illusion.
