I've got over 400 miles on a tankful quite a few times(the most being 420-not bad for a 2.5ATX). I used to always drive until the light comes on(and them some-once drove 45 miles with it on!). I pushed it too far last fall and ran it out of gas. The g/f gave me a dope slap and now I fill up right when the light comes on(and even sometimes before!).

Almost 120K miles have past, and despite my mad obsession of extracting every last drop from the tank, I still have the original fuel pump!
