The ones I have seen do both in separate displays. When we are
renting, I usually put it on "miles to empty". That is the one you
really need to watch out west when stations are few and far between.


What I leave the wife's on. My truck I look at the gas grave.

My wife believes that "miles to empty" is gospel and she gets it down
to single digits some time before she will stop for gas.
She just says she knows I have 20 gallons or more in the shed all the

heat and fail sooner, if you run the tang near empty. Even fail sooner if
you run out of gas.
