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.

Yeah, I push the button again to get 'range'. It's pretty accurate, but it's based on
the current mileage, not the old average. Sometimes, if I'm pulling the trailer, the
range may be 200 miles. Then I'll drop off the trailer and after a few miles the
range will increase. Weird, but it makes sense.

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
time and I will come fuel her up if she needs it. So far it has not
happened,

Problem with that these days, are the pump in the tank cars. The umps over
heat and fail sooner, if you run the tang near empty. Even fail sooner if
you run out of gas.
