Just finished one of several trips lately. Have new '04 Touring Turbo (4300 miles, 5 weeks old now). This was the first time I got the '1/8' tank light and single chime. I had 30 miles to go, so I stopped for gas. Filled up, with extra squeeze, just to make sure. Only took 12.1 gallons. I could have made it home with gas to spare. Don't believe everything the fuel gage tells you. The trip length to that point was 284 miles, 23.4 mpg. I just added a 'Auto-Meter' boost gage (same as used in Neon SRT-4). It's easy to see what's effecting my mileage now.
