Is my math correct?
My 1996 Honda Civic, for example, has a tank that will hold 11.9 gallons (according to the User Manual specs). Yet, I tend to fill up with just 8 gallons when my needle reaches E. Since I average 34 MPG (according to Fuelly), I should theoretically travel 405 miles from a full tank. I'm tempted to drive 400 miles before a fuel up. Or is my math somehow wrong- since I never filled up from a near empty tank?
