According to the car I'm getting 38.9 mpg. Mostly in ECO mode and 85% city driving. Weather here has been mostly warm 70-89 degrees and lots of rain but just recently subsided so I'll see what I can get with the dryer weather.

My 300h consumption after 1 full tank of conservative and patient ECO-mode driving... mild weather without A/C nor heating
Not bad. Now I behave different when driving... I don't burn fuel uselessly
The next experiment will be the opposite: sport mode (car and myself) and A/C

Completely empty as in which one?
1. Car stalled
2. Remaining Mileage indicator hit 0 miles
3. Fuel light went on, fuel gauge near E
For 13 gallons to fill up or almost 3 Gallons remaining, normally that's when the fuel light comes on (selection "3" above).

The most gas I've put in mine was 14.018 gallons, and that was after I'd been about 30 miles past the "mileage remaining" counter being at zero.

Completely empty meaning:
2. Remaining Mileage indicator hit 0 miles
3. Fuel light went on, fuel gauge near E
My old car(accord) would tell you exactly how much gas it has left. I'm just surprised this car would hold so much gas as reserve.
On a side note, some idiot ding my bumper with a shopping cart. Now I have a couple pea sized scratches on my front bumper. It looks pretty deep as I can see the black plastic underneath. Any suggestions how to fix this? Should I take it to the dealer to order matching paint to touch it up?

Man I just put some really crappy gas in my car. I filled up thursday evening. I'm close to a quarter tank in less than two days and I haven't driven that many miles. Had my car idling rough and everything. smh
I'll never buy gas from that gas station again.
