What fuel range do you guys get?

Welcome, Tandom!
I can relate, mr Ranger's gauge has been broken for 15 years! I go by the odo, and I know exactly how many miles I can go per tank.
I suggest you find out for sure, so you don't have to worry. When mine first broke, I cruised around with a small can of gas, and drove til I ran out. So now I always reset the trip odo every time I fill up, and when I get close to the magic number, I fill up again.
Alternately, you could do the math on how many miles you drive from full until you fill up again, divided by how many gallons it took to refill. That's your mpg. Multiply that number times how many gallons your tank holds.
Sorry if you already know this, just trying to help.

Thanks for the reply, and the warm welcome!
I have a small empty 1 gal tank in my truck, just in case I don't get where I need to be, and I have to hoof it to a petrol station. Eventually I'll get the gauge fixed, but.. eh. The odo works. Also, I never k ew that equation, thanks! I'll have to remember that! But I pretty much do the same thing. Fuel up when I'm close to empty, and fill it, resetting the odo.
