2006 Silverado Fuel Tank Capacity
Anyone know what the fuel tank capacity is on a 2006 Silverado? (regular cab, swb, short bed, V6, LS)
Any links are appreciated, I've been searching awhile and getting a lot of different answers.

I'd read that, but it doesn't really add up.
Because when my Low Fuel light comes on and I fill up my tank, I'm only putting about 22-23 gallons back in it.
Is the Low Fuel light just that generous? Because I could easily get another 70 miles per tank if the light is that generous.

Imat,
i would not run a chevy truck that low of fuel, fuel is what keeps your fuel pump cool,
after i paid the GM dealer $600 to replace the fuel pump at 45K the tech told me to change the fuel filter at 15K intervals and never let the tank get below 1/4 full as the fuel keeps the fuel pump cool.
If you are going to run the tank that low of fuel i would invest in a rubber mallet,
when the fuel pump quits, sometimes you can rap the tank a few times and get it to run one more time, that way you can get home or to the repair shop.
I would never leave the house in my old chevy without the rubber mallet in my tool box.

She's almost fuel right now. And I'm not that much of a risk taker running her 60 miles past.
But thanks for all the information! Learned a lot.
