The fuel light indicates that there's less than 2 or 3 gallons to empty, so, depending upon your fuel consumption, less at highway speeds, BUT, I would advise that you don't run down this far on a regular basis.. Running close to empty is harder on the fuel pump...

When I said less at highway speeds, I mean that you might go another 50 miles, but, in the city, you might run out of gas sooner... Don't run out of gas, not a good idea..
