What Wild Bill and others have said - I start looking at 50% when pulling. If I get to 25% I no longer look for something convenient, I grab what I see. Pulling is a ‘no stress’ joy for me; we use off roads, drive speed limit (or set cruise at 64mph on freeway and sit in right lane, don’t push gas gauge, and enjoy the scenery. I enjoy pulling the 5er more than driving without it.
Funny story on idiot lights. I bought a new Mustang in the mid-80s when they first started putting idiot lights on gas gauge. I was so enthralled I had to see it light up. Was driving in Phx with friends from out of state in car and passed several gas stations with gauge on ‘E’ but not light. Friends we’re getting nervous and complained a lot but I was insistent I had to see this ‘new fangled’ Light do it’s job....You guessed it, we were stranded on the side of the road because the factory hadn’t hooked it up properly....
