I just bought this Aveo LT and like to check things out before needing to count on something. This little test drive on low fuel came as a surprise when I saw how dim the low fuel indicator actually is. I happened to be on a limited access parkway with many miles between gas exits. The owners manual states low fuel light activates with 1.7 gals left in the 12 gallon tank. Driving 65mph with 11AM daylight with the gauge needle hovering on E I kept my eye on the dash waiting for a low fuel indicator light to appear(my 99 BMW Z3 Coupe and 02 Mazda 626 low fuel indicator lights are on the gauges and shine bright in daylight when activated)
