Hurray! a place for econo-freaks. Lets all save the planet a little each day.
So we are all on the same page, come spring and full power diesel supplies, lets all agree on how mileage is calculated.
What I do:
Keep an excel chart with entries for each fillup. MPG is calced by:
(mileage at this fillup - mileage at last fillup)/US gallons added at last fillup
Over the long haul, filling up at different levels of "empty" will even out. But try to keep it a common point on the fuel gauge or your charts will be wacked with anomolies.
I know this has been discussed before but lets air it out for the sake of being able to find it by a search of this new forum.
Is my method the same as everybody elses?
