I guess my driving style has to do with that

I usually fill up at 300 miles or so and put about 14 gal in. There's a little wiggle room there.

I'm usually getting the warning at about 200 miles. If I use the freeway for most miles I can get more but I don't like to flirt with the low warnings. When it thinks things are serious the gauge turns red.
I'll have to start tracking how many gallons I'm putting in each time.

I run mine down pretty low... but generally get "295 - 312" message. Only have 1100 miles on my rig, but have been averaging 18.2 city... and ~ 24 highway. 2006GT.
