Just to share my recent experience. 2 dots left and flashing low fuel with about 38 miles remaining. Filled up the tank with 18 gallons. So I have about 1 gallon left in the tank based on the 19 gallon capacity. I suppose the computer is off by about 20 miles assuming I get about 18 mpg unless there is some sort of reserve capacity beyond the 19 gallons.

From my some daring experience, you roughly have 2 gallons left with 1 light and 0.5 gallon left when all lights are gone.
