Gave the TDI to my daughter at college, so I won't be participating for a while (and then might sell back to VW, so who knows). Any who, please consolidate your entries so I can just copy/paste into database, don't include dates, MPG, etc.

Please pay attention to these instructions, I'd rather not have to fix submission errors.

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 September 5th 2016, but remember, report tanks FILLED IN AUGUST.

Use these 7 data elements ONLY

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.

DON'T INCLUDE THESE ALONG WITH YOUR DATA, YOU CAN PUT AT THE END IF YOU WANT

MPG: (optional since I will calculate it automatically anyway)
Odometer: (optional)
(anything else you would like to add)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Please put a space after the colon ( ": ")

Please NOTE Units are in US Gallons and Miles
http://bit.ly/bRcWd2
http://bit.ly/aOcO89
http://bit.ly/ai8xWe

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 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 fill-ups to a post. Multiple fill-ups per post is fine as long as all fill-ups 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.

Only 13.289 gallons to go 38,894 miles? You've got to tell us your secret.

Another pull out all the stops tank, best guess is a bit lower MPG from some cooler temps esp in the mornings we had some low 40's. Next tank will be more of a regular hard but not crazy effort kind of tank.

Not sure how you did it, but your data doesn't paste into google sheets...
Maybe because you used a <tab> not a space after the ":" ?
I'll hand type it
Doesn't like your comma in the miles either

someone left out a model year on their data entry...
and the returning Juergs forgot the format, it's all good.

I'm turning the reins back over to Juergs
