Went to golden for a graduation and moved things home from school. Considering the loaded car and such things went well. Did you testing since I swapped in new rotors and had to do a lot of slow downs and stops to try and bed them in. Also dove a bit aggresive and went to a burger night in Ken Caryl. Was fun and did pretty good on gas.

Nov 28 2010

Went to get my starter replaced but didn't get it down. Seems to magically be working again. Drove to the museum and back after driving home from school. Drove in snowy weather for one trip to school but seemed to do ok on mileage. Went to Cheyenne Mtn Zoo and then the Denver museum of Nature and Science later in the week.The biggest thing seemed to be going between houses for thanksgiving break. Restarting in the cold weather and only driving 4 miles didn't help my fuel consumption.

Drove 60 miles highway and then exhaust broke. Drove another 75 miles until I could get the leak fixed. Dropped my fuel mileage a lot. I got probably 20 mpg instead of 26 hwy. Got it fixed and drove 120 miles to greeley. Didn't make it all the way and had to stop off for gas. Couldn't fill up all the way but was close. Expect this mileage to be high and the next to be a bit lower than actual. (they even out overall) close to 192000mi fuel sender seems to be stuck at 1/4 tank

Sep 12 2010

Started school and driving back and forth for almost three trips. Met Alexandra and her mom for lunch at Happy Canyon. Lost mileage due to dragging/sticking brake caliper. Also had another slow leak in the tire. Greatly affected gas mileage for this and the last fill up. The tire seems to be holding air, and brake is no longer sticking. Next fuel up should be much better mileage. Starting 4th week of school.
