I just filled up the other day at 352 miles and it was just a bit over 20 gallons at 17.65 mpg. And yes the low fuel light was on.

Re: How low can you go....
I hit 395 miles the other day and probably could have gone further....but I chickened out. Turns out I put in 21.6 gallons at that fill.
Does the H3 have a 22 or 23 gallon tank?
oh yea, I have 26K miles on it adn the mileage definetly got better after about 8000 miles and continues to improve.

Re: How low can you go....
Check the old posts about MPG. There is a charactor there who claims over 20MPH Average.
I think its all downhill though...

Re: How low can you go....
I don't have a 3, but traveling to Moab in the black truck the fuel light came on somewhere in never-neverland Kansas (Damn KS). I couldn't find a gas station out there at all. Then the "Mileage To Go" meter stopped giving me a range to empty and just said "Low".
Holy crap!!! In the middle of freaking nowhere without a jerrycan!
I was on the phone with Adam and sweating bullets!
FINALLY, a station! I filled up 29.5 gallons in a 32 gallon tank getting under 12mpg! Figuring the last 1.5-2 gallons are unusable, well, I was pretty close to a problem.
BTW, that truck used premium fuel at over $3 a gallon at the time! 4,200 miles Buddy... 4,200 miles...
