How do I find out how big the gas tank in my truck is?

Question

I drive a 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada SUV & would like to find out how big the gas tank is and many miles per gallon on average that she gets. Plannin a long drive from iowa to arizona and want to get an idea as to how much its going to cost me.

Answer 1

Your SUV has a tank size of 19 gallons. According to FuelEconomy.gov, you can expect to achieve 18.4 miles to the gallon.

Answer 2

Check out the specifications on the tank with one of the web sites available. You should be able to note the mileage on the odometer when you fill up and then note the mileage when you refuel. Divide that mileage by the number of gallons that it took to fill up. Since you will be doing a lot of highway driving you can figure on getting better mpg than driving around town. Good luck on your trip.

Answer 3

2 ways. First way. Open the glove box, pull out the manual. Look toward the back of it where it lists specifications and capacities for the size of your tank.

Second way. Drive until it quits. Get a tow to the station and see how much it takes to fill it up.

For mileage, just do the math for a couple of fill ups.
