Default Low fuel light indicator on 2008 Tacoma?

Do the 2008 Tacomas have a low fuel light indicator? I've got the gas down pretty far and have not seen any type of warning and on start-up I don't see a "gas tank" emblem, so I anticipate it doesn't, but would like to know for sure. Thanks!

I had problems finding a gas station on my last trip to the Adirondacks and ended up taking it down all the way to E. As I recall, I was nearly on E before the warning light came on. Less than 10 miles later I refilled and it only took less than 17 gallons. So I had at least 4 gallons of reserve.

BTW, may previous 2 Tacomas and the Tundra had low fuel warning indicators also. Hope that helps.
BTW, check your owner's manual to confirm.

Yes it has one. It will come on when you get below 4 gallons. Realize that when your gas gauge hits 1/4 tank, you probably still have 8 gallons left.

I had it come on for we a few weeks ago. It is just a round yellow light down by the "E" on the gauge.

Thanks to all who have responded. By reports, it does, and as the price of gas continues to rise, I guess I'll see the low fuel gauge first-hand.
