The fuel pump on my Escort went out at 80-something-thousand miles. I figured it was the cheap gas I was using but this one guy said the same thing about the fuel pump that D1JL said and also claimed that I should fill up at half-a-tank. I don't think I'll ever really know what the cause was.

Anyway, I wouldn't know my miles to empty since I have an S model and it doesn't tell you those types of things. However, I find myself refueling at 300 miles regardless of what the gauge says. It's just habit since no car I had before would go much past 300 on a tank.
