Not exactly but close. In the older gas gauges it was an arrow that told you how low your tank was. That was only an estimate also. Same difference. Once you get used to the lines you will be able to guestimate how many gallons you will need to fill up your tank. If you do not want to do basic math then I would suggest that you wait until the lines gets to half and give them $15 and get $15 worth of gas and drive away. See how close you are to full and adjust the amount the next time you get gas.

That would save you the two trips.
