I usually fill when it says 15 or 20 left, and I consistently put at least 15.75 in.
There have been plenty of posts about this in the past, but it's amazing how people get such different results. The pumps calibration can't be THAT far off.

From everything I have read it currently takes about 4 gallons of ethano to make five (from corn)...
doesn't seem like a very efficient replacement for good ol' gasoline for me.
It is in our gas in Oregon all of the time now (not just winter).
I agree about with you about how it has effected food prices.

I must have a small fuel tank or something. When my computer says 0 remaining, I fill up with like
13 gallons or so.
I don't think I've ever put more than 14.5 in ever, and that's when I ran like 20 miles past 0...
