    Hey yall.
    Thanks for the acceptance to the forum.
    I just bought about 1 month ago a 2014 Tundra SR5 4X4.
    I've filled it up 3 times now from the gas warning light being on.
    I'm only able to put in 20.7 is gallons each time.
    I've read it should be 26.
    Seems like a lot of reserve if that's the case.
    Only getting about 200 miles a tank.
    Any help on this is appreciated.

    That’s to be expected. My gas light comes on and I have fillups between 28.5-30 gallons on my 38 gallon tank depending on how level the truck is from suspension sag.

    Agreed, thats just how these trucks are for some reason. They definitely have a fair amount of reserve after the light comes on.

    Welcome to the forum..
    As others stated it's normal.
    I have the same truck you do.
    The most I ever put in the tank is 21.5 gallons in the last 9 years.

    You should be getting more than 200 miles a tank.
    I get about 315 a tank @ 13.2 MPG according to the dash display.
    I'm pretty heavy on the gas pedal..:burnrubber:

    If you push the DISP button down and hold a few seconds it will reset the dash stuff.
    But it will take a few tankfuls of gas to be accurate again.

    Thanks everyone.
    I was about to put a camera down the filler tube and make sure there wasn't something in there.

    It's reserve gas that cools the fuel pump.
