Haha I know this is a little late but I never thought I'd be sighted here.
This is emabrassing but I was on my way back from the Inlaws who live near Littleton, NH. I was waiting for the miles remaining on tank indicator to read "--" but it never did. It stuck on "50 miles" I'd say for about 50 miles causing my dumb self to run out of gas, haha. Don't trust that gauge as I've had varied results.
All was good though I coasted for a good 2 miles in the breakdown lane() before I finally came to a rest on that slight incline. I started walking down the highway to the next exit and my wife finally caught up to me and pull over to give me a lift to the gas station. All in all It only took about 30mins to get back on the road. Damn Cell Phones don't work too well North of the Notch so everyone turns them off to conserve battery life.
Live and Learn, I now stop at the first gas staion i see if I fall below 1/2 tank.
