Grand Prix GT Gas Tank / Milage

What is the size of the gas tank on the 2003 Grand Prix GT. I'm sure its in the manual, but I just can't find it.

Also, anybody have an idea what kind of gas mileage I can expect. I do mostly home to work and back driving (not much highway).

Thanks

Shawn

is it really 18, i was wondering the same thing, i own a 2000 se with the 3.1 and the low fuel light comes on and it takes 13 gallons to fill from that point, 5 gallons seems like a big reserve or something. or i have no idea what im talking about.

It's 18 gal. or 68 liters (17.952 gal.) for 2000 models too. You may have a fuel gauge out of calibration or the fuel level sensor in the gas tank is off.
