Default Re: gas tank mileage

You are talking about DTE (distance to empty) on the computer?

If so, this is perfectly normal, and found on any decent car with a trip computer.

Computer calculates the driving range based on your previous driving habits (ie. average of many instantaneous mpg calculations over some time in the recent past) just before the fill up.

All cars do this calculation. So if you were doing mainly highway miles, the DTE will show more than if you are driving mainly city miles.
