    Looks like with each tank, I'm pumping more and more fuel before the first click. I'm at 36 litres before the first click now, 1 more than the last tank.

    It took a lot of effort to get that last gallon into the tank after the auto shut off.

    I have to laugh at our local talk radio hosts. They are asking people what they are doing to make the trip to the pump less painful. Most are topping off the tank rather than waiting for a full fill, putting no more than $20 worth in (which gives them 1/4-1/2 tank). Ha, my last full tank was $22.25!

    We don't remember the exact numbers but we did roughly 600 miles on our trip home from the dealership where we picked it up at before filling up with ~.2 gallons of gas left.
