When you say zero do you mean when the computer fuel gauge reads zero or there's zero gas in the tank?
On newer technology I'm guessing when it says zero..I was always taught not to run around with low fuel for a long time because the fuel pump will overheat and burn up. Actually burned up one on a cavalier that way

Hopefully with newer technology and vehicle evolution this is not the case on the Gladiator. Especially when it still has almost 4 gallons left even after the computer gauge reads 0. I only done this once when I drove about 5 miles after it read 0 but still could only put about 18 gallons of gas. Nevertheless, I would rather not risk it and should start filling up when I get the low fuel sign.

Hi,

I'm new here and bought my first jeep. It has 25k miles on it and noticed same issue. I filled up my gas and it took forever for gauge to move up.
