Is this car supposed to tell you how many miles left til empty?

Almost every new car has this feature. Even my Hyundai had it. Yet I don't see it on my new Camaro. :(

I skimmed through it, but I didn't sit there and read the whole thing. Who has time for that?

Don't push the menu botton, just turn the dial on the turn signal lever till it says "range" and then go back to the digital speedo...

Love the digital speedo, have not looked at the anolog guage once...

Also setting the speed warning is a great feature to have considering all the lame @ss photo radars around here in Arizona.

Seemed like a simple enough question to me??? Not that big of a deal.

don't know bout the camaro but here is my solstice observations...at a measurable 40 miles or less it will say low fuel range...BUT at start if you are on the range option on the DIC then it gives you an exact reading for about 2 seconds then goes to low fuel range...ALSO not a great idea to run the gas too low it is necessity to have a good AFR so keep enough in there PLEASE!!!

E.G. if I get caught in traffic and is stop and go and I am worried I kill the car and restart and that lets me know if I am screwed or not!

I'm sure the day I get my SS, I won't sleep a wink that night. I'll probably be sitting it the car all night smelling the smells, playing with the gadgets and yes reading the manual cover to cover. (just like I did when I bought my '87 Grand National back in '87.)

There was a fellow who made an appointment with the GM Service adviser .

Complaint was the drivers window would go all the way down when he touched the power switch. Never read the manual about " express windows".

Another guy made a service order because he said his car would accelerate by itself ....

Never read the manual about cruise control resume.

Real smart to drive a $40,000 car at 60 MPH and not know how to use the controls or DIC.

Wonder how many of these 2010 we've seen wrecked so quickly never read the manual.???

Well you heard it here...the manual is the be all end all for ANY question concerning the Camaro...

Shut the website down, it is no longer needed if we just curl up next to the fireplace drink some wine and throughly memorize our owners manual...
