    We were actually coming back from St. Anthony's dunes up through middle of nowhere Montana once and the light was on, we pulled into a tiny town along the highway with 10 miles to empty... The entire town was out of power and the gas station was out of service. Thank God we had 5 gallons left in the trailer for the toys...

    Stop at the local gas station. They have the tools needed to turn that light off.

    I just picked up 18.8 gallons roughly 20 miles after the light when on. Distance traveled 342.9 miles in mixed highway/city driving. Not bad for mpg (18.2 mpg) in winter driving and slogging through a 7" snowfall.

    LOL!
    Yeah, I've been through the Middle-Of-Montana-Nowhere a few times. Never a good thing to run low on fuel.... LOL!
    It's why I have a Jeep Can on the back of my van, even though the wife says 'It's UGLY!!' Eh, whatever...
