In highway driving the (intermitent) gas light comes on earlier, after which you can go another 20 to 30 miles depending on braking, weather contitions, if you've got cruise control engaged and traffic conditions.

City driving is a totally different story, when the light comes intermittently you got about 5 miles to go then when you get to where it stays on you have less than 2 miles to go. Take it from me, because I actually ran out of gas 2 blocks from a gas station, needless to say I found a traffic violation ticket on my windsheild (for leaving my VX in the middle of the street) when I got back with a 2 liter sprite bottle full of gas. That just was not my day.

In my previous experience with other cars there is more leadway. It drops another quarter past "E" no problem. When the VX hits "E" you better look around for a gas station.
