yes you have roughly 3 gallons when the gaslight comes on but if you drain it completly empty you can get 21 gallons in there i ment to say that instead of 22 it was just a typoSo now wehave to figure out your problem.

Do you have oversized tires?
Have you Recalibrated your spedometer ifyou have Oversized tires?
When is the last time you've changed your O2 Sensor?
Are the plugs and wires fairly new?
Have you Replaced your Air Filter?
What weight oil do your run?
etc...

If i'm not mistakin, i have the 20. I think i have that because if i fill up from a 1/4 tank, 17 gallons go in. And i read in the manuel that when the gas light comes on, thats when you have 3 gallons left in the tank. Lol. correct me if im wrong...

Then there is definitaly something wrong with my truck. Because, if user is getting 270 as his best with his 5.9 and hes on it all the time. And i have a 5.2 and i got 270 as my highest with driving normal. I think its time for a tune-up.
