Last weekend my gas light came on so i nursed it to the gas station. I went about 14 miles with the light on thinking i only had about a gallon off gas left. After filling up it only took 6.6 gallons meaning there was still 2.5 gallons left wtf? A little early for the light to come on ain't it? Just wondering if they are all like that. I'm thinking i could go at least another 40 miles now after it comes on

When our lights come on we assume 2 gallons left even though it's actually 2.5. So we assume 30 to 40 miles before running out. Helps to know for gas "situations"...

My apex light comes on I have made it 45-48miles but was on fumes. I now carry extra 1.5 gallons with me all the time. 9.4 gallons is not enough for the back country rides and different conditions to hard to judge mileage. I wish they just kept the 12 gallon tanks! Doo claims 200 miles to tank? 150 with us is pushing it on 9 gallon tank. 3 more gallons and we could push 200 also!

I'll answer your question, instead of all this mumbo jumbo people are putting in their posts. On my 2011 Apex SE I have 2 1/2 gallons left once my light comes on.

My 2011 SE went 28 miles after light came on before it stopped...... Put a gallon in to get it the 6 miles back to truck. Took 7.9 gal to fill it. Seems like I lost something somewhere.
