June 2009 Mileage Thread

This is a month by month competition. Every time you make an entry it will be added up and recorded together according to the fuel type and car/year you are driving.
THIS IS NOT an individual tank competition (or a partial tank competition for that matter).

Entries will be accepted until July 5th 2009, but remember, report tanks FILLED IN JUNE.

Entry Format:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Driver:
Miles:
Gallons:
Model Year:
Model:
Tranny:
Fuel Type:

You are allowed to put more than one fill up in a post, so long as each fill up conforms to format.

MPG: (optional since I will calculate it automatically anyway)
(anything else you would like to add)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Hint on entering your data - after the colon ( ":") put a space.

US GALLONS AND MILES

TRANNY TYPES:
(x) A = x speed automatic
(x) M = x speed manual *
DSG = direct-shift gearbox
CVT = continuously variable transmission
* if you have swapped in a taller 5th gear please noted this (ie: 5M w/.681)

FUEL TYPES:
Bx = biodiesel - x is the percentage of bio
Biodiesel use equal to, or more than B20, will be indicated in GREEN.
ULSD / LSD / D2 = normal petroleum based diesel
Also please note if it's winterized

- please note if you are using a fuel additive (ie: ULSD +PS)
- - Power Service (PS); Stanadyne (ST); Redline (RL)

Posts not in format will not be tallied / corrected. If I have to do any editing to get your post in format (or to get the correct name), it will not be counted. Feel free to correct your own posts to get them in format.

Please do not go back and add additional fillups to a post. Multiple fillups per post is fine as long as all fillups are in format. If the driver name is not the same as your post name - this will be considered "Not in format" and will not be counted. Only exceptions would be "and spouse" etc.

Best mileage in a long time; 45 pounds nitrogen in tires; almost all mileage is around town but Pensacola cannot be called a city--it is flat with almost no hills.

Do want us to make separate entries for each of our fills or just add everything together at the end of the month?

Separate fills is fine with me, if you want to total them you can also, no real preference on my part.

Take care,

This is as far as I have ever pushed the needle to the left for a 1000 mile tank, but we wasted a lot of fuel doing a compression test at the GTG in Asheville, and I just had to prove to myself that the old girl could still do it. Next Goal: 1200 mile tank!

Worst mileage yet. Way too many short haul trips with stop and go.
The A/C isn't helping either.
Today is my 10000 mile service at the dealer. All fingers are crossed that everyone knows what they are doing there. My experience so far is that they do.

Too many hwy back ups break downs and heavy thunderstorms making for sitting still or crawling in traffic.:mad: Was going to be a best commuting MPG for a half tank. Diesel prices jumped 10 cents per gallon around here so I wanted to fill up before it went up more.:eek:
