RT Tank Volume

Here's another data point for '07 RT Tank volume.

Low Fuel light approx. 50 miles to empty

53.7 miles past 0 to empty fill up 7.08 gallons (no rubber plug in tank)

315 miles on the trip meter

That's over 2 gallons remaining when the light comes on!

This was to be a functional test, but never actually ran out of gas. Couldn't pass up that last gas station!
 
I had the fuel guage on my '06 RT re-calibrated under warranty, as have numerous other RT owners. The low fuel level warning now comes on much later. I couldn't stand seeing that yellow warning triangle -- found it distracting, unlike the flashing gas pump icon.
