I was just wondering how many gallons would be left in the gas tank when the gas light comes on, if you guys know.

there was a thread a while back about this...and it varries from one car to the next a little...and its dependant on how you fill your car as well....

assuming what when you fill up you have a FULL tank....drive till the light comes on.....then find a station and fill up right away and do the math...

for me...its about 1 1/2 to 2 gallons left.

It depends bro. Some cars are different depending on the driver and what you got under the hood. Usually around 25 to 40 miles.
