Okay, so there's a learning curve to the Focus just like any car. I was under the (incorrect) assumption that "Distance to E" was not only somewhat accurate, but that once you hit "Distance to E = 0" you would still have a little bit left in reserve. I was driving back from Seattle last night and was watching the miles I had left based upon the miles to my destination. After driving for 3 hours, my Focus ran out of gas about 100 feet short of the off-ramp to the exit for my house (about 2.5 miles from home). The readout still read: "Distance to E = 7". Well, obviously not!!! [gunfire]
Ford roadside assistance rocked. Within 20 minutes a guy was there with a couple of gallons of gas to get me home.
Funny, I remember reading that several of you have driven their Foci all the way until they had zero remaining miles without a problem. Oh well! Lesson learned.
