How far a 2010 Ford Expedition goes on a tank
Gallons left and the distance they cover at each mark on the fuel gauge, at EPA city and highway mileage. At the combined rating of 16 MPG, a full 33.5-gallon tank covers about 536 miles.
| Gauge | Gallons | Highway miles | City miles |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full | 33.5 | 670 | 469 |
| 3/4 | 25.1 | 503 | 352 |
| 1/2 | 16.8 | 335 | 235 |
| 1/4 | 8.4 | 168 | 117 |
| 1/8 | 4.2 | 84 | 59 |
Over 15,000 miles a year (the EPA's yearly estimate) this configuration uses about 938 gallons, roughly 28 full tanks.
Fuel gauges aren't perfectly linear and the low-fuel light comes on with a few gallons still in the tank, so plan your stop before the last eighth.
