So, did all your warning lights on the dash reset to normal after re-fuelling?

Good to know that if you do run out of gas you can run on electric to either get to a safe area and or to the nearest gas station.

That is just about all you'll get in these given the battery size.
I guess the idea of adding another battery in is out of the question down the road.
I really thought it would have more juice but that thing is tiny.
Absolutely brilliant kcamp317 thanks for finding out this vital information. I would be too much of a wussy to do this on my Mav....when it shows up anyway.

Running the fuel tank dry like that is a very bad idea, say goodby to the fuel pump in short order,

Two things - the electric motor is not really big enough to really send the Maverick down the road with pace and efficiency - but really even just pace. So adding a larger battery would allow you in theory to limp it back to a safe place but the performance would not increase.
and now I know.

Well he buys them and then sells them, so he does't care about the consequences, but good info for those of us curious about it. I assumed it wouldn't run at all.

My mother in law drives a Chevy Trax. So worst case scenario for a fuel pump, injectors, lines, everything. Yet nothing has broken for 130k miles. Oh, she also has ran it dry almost monthly for the last 3 years. She is horrible with money so only gets 2 gallons at a time. I’ve stopped taking her gas cans, but my wife keeps feeding the stupidity.
