Gas Prices

a wise policy. your fuel pump may be inside the tank and fuel cooled....and at the least, you don't want to get so low that all the goo and detritus at the bottom of your tank gets into your fuel lines.

I was just remarking that if you topped it of with $31 at eff. $2/gal, that's only 15.5 gallons. The 93-98 ZJ Grand Cherokee held 23 gallons. 99 on up it's 20.5

I always panic when my gas light comes on because the gauge looks so low, but you're supposed to have 25-50 miles left in the tank when that comes on. The MOST I've put in the Commander at one time is 17.4 gallons. It's built on the same platform as the 06 Gr Cherokee. Says it has a 20.5 gallon tank as well..... I think I'm better off thinkink it has 17.5 in my head.

I'm not entirely sure that GCOne has a 23 gal tank, but, I won't argue with someone who sounds like they know.

But, I will get the manual out, and look.




ETA: Well, whaddya know...23.0 gallons.

I'll never doubt you again, good Sir Jim.

I was doubtful mainly because this has happened, more times than is manly to admit, and I don't think either of us has ever put more than 20 gallons in the tank.



Ah, well, live visit teh Cellar, and learn.
