is this a recent happening? i think there is some sort of relay or wire diagram thing located in the passenger side mirror... i remember you talking about an accident you had earlier where the mirror was destroyed, this has probably messed up that sensor relay thing, what year did the replacement mirror come from? i know for a fact that that might be triggering the problem, while this keeps occurring you probably shouldnt drive your truck just to save gas cause im sure your milage is shot too... maybe try driving your 12 other cars that you own and work on?

I will assist with your problem; Put gas into it, then the gas guage will go up to the F. As you drive the guage will slowly drop down to the E. That should solve your problem.
