Tank doesn't sit level and therefore isn't a constant shape. Dad's Jeep
Liberty was notorious for this, at 1/4 tank you need to look for gas NOW, its
got like 1/16 range left.

Last fill of the tank for my '95 E300 returned 31 mpg, all in town driving.
(Thanks Dan!)
Low traffic volume means that nearly every intersection is a green light, and
the speed limit is 45 mph, so about optimum conditions for high mpg.

You probably need to read and review the owners manual several times. That car
has a lot of useful features that didn't exist when your 123 wagon was built.

Well, it turns out that the miles since "reset" was not what I thought.
The reset occurred BEFORE I purchased the vehicle. Turns out that I have
driven only about 200 miles from the full fuel tank. The gauge is down a
little over 1/3, which corresponds with the 567 mile range of the car.
Today I
Do not assume that the gauge is linear - nor that the fuel remaining-range
left is accurate. Only experience will tell you, drive another couple
thousand miles, log every drop of fuel you pump, and you will find out

Spend a few $$ (150) and buy an iCarsoft (or similar) scanner ffom Bezo and you
can see if there are any new or old codes showing related to the fuel sender.
This 211 I just bought has some stored codes related to that system. I need to
get a VMI to see if anything was ever done to it.

I see this in my Nissan, not that it's particularly relevant to your
question. First half of the tank covers about 2/3 of the total
range. Gauge drops rapidly once half a tank. I figure it's marketing,
somehow. "Wow I've gone 100 miles and the gauge is still on Full"

I've had cars, some of them MBZ, that spent the first 100 miles getting
down to the full mark.

I've driven over 320 miles in my "new" 2014 GLK 250 with another +- 250
miles left in the range (19 gallon tank, av. 30 mpg). Yet the fuel gauge
shows I am only down 1/3 of a tank. Anyone else come across this glitch?
I should be below 1/2 by now. The needle is not jumping around. Fuel
