    I did the same thing. Washed, waxed, vacuumed and into the garage with seconds to spare.

    ive done that with my last pick up, rolled into a station on fumes, it stalled out for the last time at the pump. i had a 32 gallon tank, it took 33.5 to fill it back up. and even when it was low, like laying flat on E, it would always take 29 to 30 to fill it.

    I'd recommend HP tuners.

    Yea... sixth gen prix' are 16.5 gallon tanks right? I know my fifth gen is but never checked the other one lol if its a larger tank then that would explain a lot. On the bright side if the mpg stays consistent then I should be able to get 455 miles out of this tank. Was gonna put my new fuel sending unit in but not sure if I should wait til I use a little more gas first don't wanna pull the fuel pump out and have the gas overflow out when I pull it out. any opinion on that?
