YES
Try to refuel within ten miles of the light coming on. These aren't like cars where they let you ride around on 'E' for dozens of miles.

trip is 80-90 miles, should I have enough if I fill up right before?
Easily... yes. Range is typically between 110 and 190 miles. If you shift at appropriate RPMs, highway mileage can be a little worse than street due air-flow/emissions and sustained higher RPM range. (at least for 2nd Gen ... not yet enough experience with newer Gen...)
