Default It means he has 720 miles left before refeuling.

Personally, I love it whe the display says I am getting 85 miles per gallon. Gotta love these cars.

Default you don't have a 25 gallon tank, unless you have a second tank in your trunk.

Furthermore, the only thing a large tank gets you is long range, it still costs exactly the same to fill it.

Yeah, but you just don't make as much boost when you're coasting

Default how does a bigger tank help?

you're still using the same amount of gas
maybe you saved a few cents by filling it up when they were cheaper
but you're not saving anything anymore...
