the tank is supposedly 17.2. I've run mine to 0 DTE and fit 14 gallons in. The dealer says there is a 2.6 gallons reserve. But the math suggests there is a 3.2 gallon reserve. Not sure what the issue there is.
The DTE is a scam - it uses the unattainable 27-28 mpg against 14 gallons. Its not using real mileage experienced. And it's ignoring the reserve.
