I matched the (old) EPA figure!!
Well, here it is!
I'm kinda bummed because the light came on early. It was supposed to come on at 840-860kms (based on 2½ years of monitoring the gas gauge) but it came on at 806kms. So, instead of celebrating with a 900+ or even 1000km tank, I'm showing you this lol.
And the refuel amount shows that I had plenty left. I only added 33.651 litres (out of a possible 45 litres for those who don't know the tank size in litres).
But driving around with the blinking light is stressful and you never know if the computer will cut power even though there's 10 litres left.
Anywho, enjoy the picture below.

BTW, congratulations. I did some 'back of the envelope' and it looks to me if you had a spare can and willing to go 'to dry,' you'd have made 1,095 km.
