I wasn't trying to run the tank this low, just rushing around and kept delaying stopping for fuel. I put 20.1 gallons in, had to let the diesel foam settle a bit to get it full. I won't wait this long again, but glad to know there is that much usable fuel in the tank.

Awesome! So not only does the diesel have alot more power and much better MPGs it also stores 1.5 gallons more in the tank. Way to make me feel bad guys! :ROTFL:

I lied about not doing it again. Today I pushed it a bit getting home from a trip, ended up filling with 20.6 gallons. I went 593 miles for 28.8 mpg, wish I went the extra 7 miles so I could say I made it 600 miles on a tank.
