    You shouldve set a cruise for like 70mph and that would’ve given you a better idea haha you kept crackin into 80+ and calling it conservative 😂😂😂. Got that lead foot!

    You got faster 0-60 because you have less fuel weight than you typically do. And well yes more power due to colder intake temps.

    my 2.7TT Bronco Badlands really loves the cold weather. Boosted engines love the dense air and cold charge temps. You need to get the replacement nozzles for the gas canister. i put all mine back to the old style and don't ever regret it

    I Think this will always depend on a lot of factors. The computer most likely assumes that you will maintain your driving style that you had and calculates a range using this.
    So if you drive like a hooligan and then take it easy after the light comes on, there will be much more range

    part of the reason the world records for speeds are mostly attempted on salt lakes is that salt provides a better friction surface than tarmac. so tires can grip better. so that "salty surface" you described in fact is an advantage point.

    Hey Mike - Merry Christmas to you and your family. As I watched the upload, I thought that driving at 75 - 82 mph on the highway isn't really conservative. The TRX would have done noticeably better at 65 - 70 mph.

  • @scottvecere1415
    @scottvecere1415 Рік тому +4

    Low was equivalent to 10 miles. So, I would say 0 miles to go was 10 miles later. That being said, I would say the reserve is 16 miles. Great video!

    3.5 for lower temperature and lower gas in the tank. Good video, I was planning to do this but you already got it so saves my time and gas. And I don’t have to freak out when I see the low tank indicator anymore, it’s enough for me to go around the Island here in Hawaii before completely running out.

    Another way to do that is to know how many gallons your tank is and then when you go fill it up with the pump and subtract and you know how many gallons are still in your tank usually manufactures leave you 30 to 50 miles after it says zero

    I have a 450whp STI, one of the lighter ones at 3350lbs, and it gets 14mpg on 93 octane and 9-13mpg on E85. So think about that when you consider this truck's gas mileage. Dollars for donuts this truck isn't that bad.

  • @lanceripplinger8352
    @lanceripplinger8352 Рік тому +4

    Looks like they turn the fuel light on when you have 5 gallons or less remaining in the tank. That is my guess anyway. Love these tests you do. Of course, nobody should make a habit out of running the fuel tank dry. That is hard on the fuel pump.

  • @AlexM..
    @AlexM.. Рік тому +1

    It would make sense that you got 26 miles I’ve always knew that when the fuel light turns on , there is usually 2 gallons left in tank. By you getting 12 miles to gallon, that would put you in the 24 ish range

    @TheSaintshockey03 Рік тому

    The reason many will drive a little longer on 0 is so that you don't burn out your fuel pump...Gasoline is a coolant for the tank fuel pump... No gas means overheating and killing the fuel pump.. This buffer of fuel, keeps enough fuel to keep the fuel pump cool, thus not spending $$$$ for a fuel pump replacement..
