Don't know wether you have the 1500 or 2500, but in the 2500 the light goes on @ 4 gals - about 40 - 50 miles. :(

For the 1500 the light comes on with about 3-4 gallons left.

Mileage will vary but I figure only 2-3 useable gallons and 15 MPG highway so 30-45 miles.

In other words find GAS fast or figure out how to use the onstar button. LOL

Good to know - I was actually ready to ask this question. One thing I like about my Fords, a low gas light on meant you needed to find a gas station in a say a day or two (unless you were on a highway drive). When I bought my S-10 in 95 I ran it dry three separate times. When the low fuel light comes on in a GM product, don't mess around!

;D ;D ;D
