Gas rang

So today my fuel light came on in my 06 tundra. I was wondering if anyone knew how many miles in range was left in fuel. I know that if I was towing or going faster on the highway it would make a difference. I have stock height and stock tires. Ideas?

This reminds me of something I learned many decades ago about never letting gas tank get too low, especially on older rigs. There s a chance the fuel pump could/would pick up crap in bottom of fuel tank, and run it into engine. I fill up at half tank religiously, and never seen fuel light come on.

 

You’ve got around 4-5 gallons (give or take) left when the light comes on.

 

I have the 26 gallon tank and the times I have filled it up just as the light came on it only took around 20 gallons. So that will leave 5-6 gallons left in the tank. Hope this helps

 

It doesn't, because......
THIS. IS. FIRST GENNNNNN! (Think 300). (Kicks turd gen into giant hole).

 

Hmmm.... that gives me an idea. @Darkness, can you make a gif of that? I don't know how to make gifs. Or save them. I'm kinda garbage at the whole internet thing.

 

I misread 2006 for 2008... I’ll see my way out.

 

This^

 

Thanks you all! I appreciate it.

 

I usually don’t let the tank go below a quarter, in fact this is the first time I’ve seen the fuel light come on (purchase of truck was winter ‘19-20). Didn’t actually know where it was. In winter I don’t go below a half tank.

 

That was actually the first one I made, meme anyhow. I can try a gif later, never done that.

 

From full to calling a buddy for a gas can you could get anywhere from 360 to 400 miles on average. I've seen a bit more on long distance drives in the right conditions.

 

I dunno about that one, but maybe just borrow others.





Oh, I'm just playin' dawg, here you go, right-click it and "Save As":

 

You know, I'm actually kinda sad. I for a while I thought that was a cow saying SHOO, that's how bad my eyes have gotten recently.

I thought it was so funny, a cow (MOO) was saying shoo (SHOO). It was a MOO SHOO BEEF.

 

I can't figure out how to download gifs on my tablet. I'm always on here on my tablet, rarely on my phone, and almost never on my laptop.

 

Would it be helpful if I posted a copy to an album here or something so you could just link to it?

 

Hmmm, if it works I'll steal some memes. I need some new material to shoo them turd genners with.

 

Definitely. Their DNA might be evolving and starting to become immune to your usual methods...
