My Daytona had one. One kid actually laughed at me for it lol
(oh yeah, and my 87 doesnt have one either heh)
Oh yeah, and it's not good for your car to run it dry like that.

in my '00 TA the "check engine light" triggered when fuel was low. Really freaked me out when it first happened.

It's probably just me (and the cold frosties I've had) but, I find it sad that one has to have a light/reminder that 'E' actually means the gas tank is nearly empty and you need to put more gas in the tank, not.. 'I can go 200 more miles before running out of gas'.
Just me, my opinion and whatever...
