10 to 12 gallons. I have a lot of fill-ups that first click is actually before 10 gallons. I fill to the next dollar. During the summer I fill when I get down to 100 miles to empty. During winter weather I fill at 200 miles.
How Many Gallons (on Avg) Do You Fill?
In other words....do you fill up @ 1/2? 1/4? Below E?
Fuelly really helps look at that...i average a little over 14 gallons per fill, usually the DIC has read "low" for a few miles. Don't think there's anything wrong with that, as long as i dont push it too much and run it dry.

Light comes on, I head to a gas station. 12-13 gallons.
14 us gallons is normally my average fill up
10-12 gallons is my normal fill up
Warmer months I fill at 1/4-1/2 tank, winter 1/2-3/4. I will only fill at 3/4 tank in winter if I know the car will be sitting all week or I plan a longer drive. I would rather the tank be as full as possible than sit 1/2 full to avoid any possible condensation water issues.
Its also nice in the winter to know even if a blizzard hits and I get stranded somewhere I'm not going to run out of gas. Another advantage, it only takes 1-3 minutes to fill the tank so less time standing out in the cold.

Usually like spaced between 1/2 and 1/4 depending on gas prices down here. Never really think about it too much. Just buy gas when I see a good price and @ 1/4 tank. Still wondering MPG wise if something is wrong with my car. I don't drive hwy much and I am typically @ 30 -32 MPG.
30-32 MPG is good for city driving in the ECO MT, especially if you have a lot of stop and go or short steep hills.Usually like spaced between 1/2 and 1/4 depending on gas prices down here.

10-11 on my 12.6 gal tank. I have gone as far as 12.2.
I fill every week or two.....generally at the half tank point.
I tend to ride two wheels till mom nature makes my life miserable......most frequently, a scooter.....100+mpg appeals to the cheap screw in me......fun too.

I think you's guys drive to much ...
What's the point of having a car(and payment) if you don't drive that much? Looking through my records, I have burned 639 gallons so far this year in my cruze over 23,400 miles(36.6mpg average).I think you's guys drive to much ...
You drive 23,400 miles around wisconsin ? Dang you are getting a a ribbon for never leaving yer State ....What's the point of having a car(and payment) if you don't drive that much?

who said that was all in my home state? I've been in Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa already just this month.You drive 23,400 miles around wisconsin ? Dang you are getting a a ribbon for never leaving yer State ....
Darn now you do not get that ribbon !who said that was all in my home state? I've been in Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa already just this month.
But anyway you still drive too much and should probably be hitting 1000.000 miles on yer cruzen soon ........
Looking through my records for this year I will agree there are times I could drive less. My average is 70 miles a day with July being the high of 133 miles a day(4100 miles total that month). I probably won't hit 100,000 miles until next April or May, I drive less than 25 miles a day average in the winter.Darn now you do not get that ribbon !

I let mine go between half and a quarter tank. Try to keep it above half in the winter.
Isn't running your car on almost E terrible for your fuel pump?

I usually fill some time below 1/4 tank, but before the fuel light comes on. Typically, that's 16 gallons or so, but I have a Diesel and fill it all the way up the neck (which is about 18.3 gallons of total fuel in the tank.)
I can't wait that long to finish filling my diesel. Ridiculous how much foam is produced.
