On-Board Computer: 37.8 ~ Avg. Temp: 20/30F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Cold, cold, cold. Lots of defrosting the windshield, heat constantly on, and no shortage of traffic.

Dec 9 2013

On-Board Computer: 40.3 ~ Avg. Temp: 35/40F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Still using cruise control, but cooler temperatures, longer starts, and even some bad weather are keeping my mpg low.

Dec 2 2013

On-Board Computer: 40.6 ~ Avg. Temp: 35/40F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Mostly the same as the last tank, although with a bit more cruise control and heat. I also had one non-commute highway trip that involved lugging some junk around which probably hurt mpg slightly. Price changed to account for small fillup midway through the tank included in mpg calc here.

Nov 15 2013

On-Board Computer: 40.6 ~ Avg. Temp: 40/50F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Some very cold mornings, but light to no traffic on most trips. Longer work hours mean faster driving than before, and even some cruise control. Cold temps also mean the heater gets used, although not for the whole trip.

Oct 31 2013

On-Board Computer: 42.5 ~ Avg. Temp: 40/50F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Colder, but I am working earlier and leaving later which reduces traffic a good amount. Driving a bit less efficiently than usual.

Oct 22 2013

On-Board Computer: 43.0 ~ Avg. Temp: 50/60F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Well, with the under-fill last tank, and an hour plus of traffic the first day of this tank, things took a huge dive. I also took an 80 mile trip at faster than usual speed.

Oct 15 2013

On-Board Computer: 44.9 ~ Avg. Temp: 50/60F AM/PM ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Definitive proof that the pumps sometimes dictate your mpg. This was not a 50 mpg tank, the temperature was down, I did some extra city driving, there was traffic, and the computer did not show an especially high calculated average. I was surprised when the pump shut off at 7.3 gallons.

Aug 15 2013

On-Board Computer: 46.3 (Again) ~ Avg. Temp: 75F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: No A/C, but some traffic on this tank. I took a 130 mile mostly highway trip in addition to a few commutes. Also crossed 10,000 miles on 8/9/13!

Aug 8 2013

On-Board Computer: 46.3 ~ Avg. Temp: 75F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: No A/C and minimal traffic on this tank. I had the trip computer as high as 48.4 MPG after the first 100 miles or so, but it slowly came back down. Extra starts and stops also hurt this tank.

Jul 23 2013

On-Board Computer: 44.0 ~ Avg. Temp: 85F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: As with the past two tanks, my car seems to be getting fantastic MPG in the warmer weather. However, if it gets too hot, I need to turn on the A/C. I had it on the lowest setting for 100-150 miles this tank. Also had an extra city trip to the DMV.

Jul 11 2013

On-Board Computer: 44.6 ~ Avg. Temp: 75-80F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Similar to last tank, but a lot of short A/C bursts. I deserved it after the last tank.

Jul 1 2013

On-Board Computer: 45.6 ~ Avg. Temp: 75-80F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Gasp! This tank started off strong and kept going. Traffic improved a bit, I assume because school is now on break. The temperature was a bit warmer overall, and I sweated it out (no A/C) a few days. Still, 48.1 MPG is unbelievable. The pump seemed to run normally, so I don't think this one was short-changed. *Updated 7/4/13. According to my credit card bill, I used even less gas than I thought.

Jun 20 2013

On-Board Computer: 42.3 ~ Avg. Temp: 75F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Plenty of traffic for this tank. Mornings have gotten better thanks to a slightly altered route, but evenings have been a disaster. This was another one of those fill-ups where the pump was running very slow, and may have shut off earlier.

May 21 2013

May 13 2013

On-Board Computer: 44.1 ~ Avg. Temp: 60F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: 45.5 MPG? Effin A! If anything, I thought the MPG calculation for this tank would be worse just because I did not think I got a full tank last time. I encountered a lot of traffic for this tank, and even made several small extra trip/stops outside my normal commute. Removing the seats must be helping a lot...

May 3 2013

On-Board Computer: 43.5 ~ Avg. Temp: 60F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: I think this reading is on the high side. The pump was going much slower than usual, and was probably low on gas. As a result, the shutoff likely came on early as well. The temperature finally cooperated, but traffic was heavy, adding 10-40 minutes per commute. I did 6 commutes on this tank versus my usual 5.

Apr 24 2013

On-Board Computer: 42.2 ~ Avg. Temp: 45F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: On 4/20/13 I removed the rear seats, and front passenger seat. I am interested to see how this affects the fuel economy. Traffic is getting worse with the warmer weather, and on top of that there were a few cold days as well. I wish I was getting the MPG the trip computer says!

Apr 16 2013

On-Board Computer: 41.9 ~ Avg. Temp: 50F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: I have decided that the pumps are dictating my mpg somewhat. It is probably more noticeable up at the 40mpg spectrum than at the mid 20s I was getting before the new commute.

Apr 8 2013

On-Board Computer: 41.2 ~ Avg. Temp: 50F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: The temperature seems to have finally come out of the basement. Traffic was not terrible, but I was less motivated to drive efficiently after my stellar 41 mpg showing on the previous tank.

Apr 1 2013

On-Board Computer: 41.2 ~ Avg. Temp: 40F ~ Station: Global ~ Notes: Woohoo! My first 40 mpg tank! I had a good feeling about this one from the start. I never had really bad traffic or weather, and the temperature has been the warmest since I started my new highway commute.
