On my 74 BMW 2002 Empty was Empty I am not sure as to what year they enacted this.

 I've noticed that with alot of newer cars as well, take my Jeep. When the light goes on there's about 100 miles left if you're on the highway at a reasonable speed. Cold winter mornings letting the truck warm up and siting in traffic, 50 miles. I know this becuase I put 5 gal in my mounted jerry and drove the thing empty, twice Then I drove a few miles to the gas station and put 15.3 gal into a 22 gallon tank. Stupid vapor reserve things
