The range readings are certainly not accurate as they rely on the computer analysis of how you were recently driving. Although I don't make a regular habit of it, I have many, many times gotten to the 0 Range reading but not run out of gas (yet). My guess is that there is 20-30 miles left on the tank from when it first gets to 0.

One gallon left!
My first car was a 1958 VW "bug". There was no gas gauge at all. When you felt the engine sputtering, you reached down under the dashboard and turned a valve. Then, you knew you had about enough gas for 35 miles. The valve did nothing more than allow the gas to flow from a lower point in the gas tank.
