There have been varying comments on gas range and indicated distance to empty (DTE) immediately after fillup. It’s been noted that the DTE uses a computation of fuel loaded and recent mileage per gallon. Not sure how often that recalibrates, but I’ve found something that might help.
The gas station fuel pump nozzle clicks off when the sensor detects backsplash from the tank. If you then continue to fill the tank verrrry slowly, I’ve found that I can routinely squeeze another gallon into the tank. Not exactly life changing, but I get DTE figures in the 310-323 mile range when I do it.
I’ve been running in ECO mode recently, and on the highway running 80 -85 mph I’m getting between 17 and 18 mpg. This is a stock GX 550 Overtrail with no roof rack.
