My low fuel 50 miles to empty comes on just under 1/4 tank with 10 gallons left. I have a 35.7 gal tank. It also seems a bit early to me. My complant is that it probably has 130 miles left and it shows 50 to empty

Wow,

Mine comes on way to late, so late in fact that I ran out of gas on the second tank. The low fuel came on and I thought I had 5 gallons, just like my F250. Well I really had about 2.5 gallons.
