Default Fuel Indicator ...

Has anyone gone low enough in fuel to ACTUALLY see the 'low fuel' light come up on the DIC? And, if so, does anyone know exactly how much fuel or miles are left to go until you run out on the side of the road?

I keep mine fueled up, but somehow I must not have been paying attention to the fuel last week and found it just about on the E Saturday morning. But, the 'low fuel' light was NOT on. I didn't think I'd make it to the gas station. I looked in the manual and all it says is when the light comes on, try to get fuel as soon as possible. (?!?!) Our Grand Cherokee has a monitor that tells us how many miles we have left to go fuel wise, and how many mph we are making on drives. It really helps, especially when on a freeway going through rural areas (L.A. to San Fran). Does the H3 have a built in guideline of how many miles left before the light comes on .. and/or how many miles before it runs out after the light comes on (if it does come on?)

I made a suggestion to OnStar that a driver be notified (if feasibly possible) when he/she is on the cusp of running out of gas.
