Default two mildy funny things about refueling.

#1. I was not aware that the jeep made a really loud beep noise when the low fuel light came on. This scared the **** out of me becuase I was trying to closely listen to all the noises the jeep was making while I was driving.

#2. Apparently when the pump clicks off the first time, it means your tank is full, you can't try to get that extra little bit in there becuase it will wind up on the side of your jeep.

Now that I have made it through my first fill up, I should be good

just get it? You will hear things you have never heard in any other vehicle. But just enjoy.

Picked it up a little over two weeks ago. Nice to see that a tank of gas will last me that long though.

Well that is a temporary thing mine started out with 22.5 mpg and now after 7900 mi gets 17.5 don't know if it will come back up after replacing a busted evap canister but we'll see. Hopefully you didn't buy it for the mpg

Nah, I only work 15 kilometers away... 9 miles if you like, so gas isn't a huge concern of mine.
