Default gas gauge bouncing around

2000 Blazer.... gas tank gets to half a tank and the needle bounces around
erratically never giving me an accurate level. What's up with that?

I can't do this myself, and my chevy dealer has proven to be cheaper
than the small mechanics in my small town. Sounds like the labor is
what will kill me with this, right? I'm going to the dealer Saturday
to have hub bearing work, I'll inquire. But I have been doing the
reset trip for 5 months now. It's just a little trickier in winter
using 4x4, and my remote start, sucks the gas faster and I can't rely
on the trip as well.

plus if I ever want to sell the truck, who would buy it with this
problem? I'd have to disclose it to them.
