Last night i was about 3 dots from being totally empty and had 24mi left according to my fuel gauge. I turned a corner, WOT through 1 and half of 2nd and then nothing......rolled to a stop, checked for oil leaks, ect....nothing!

Walked/jogged 5 miles home to get more gas.

WTF happened! I would assume i had at least a gallon left to get to the gas station next to my house!

Anyways, Put some more gas in it and its fine(i think). Im going to the dealership Saturday anyway to get another key(bought it used and they gave me only one key and tried to get away with it).

Any thoughts?
