Started tracking my mileage

I've started tracking my mileage and putting it online in Google Docs.

If anyone wants to compare or input in the same spreadsheet, I can send you an invite and create a sheet just for you!

Not bad. I started out doing the same thing myself.

However, Darin actually runs another site called EcoModder.com that is all about improving fuel economy. They have a very nice gas log feature there that gives you nice a graphed history of your tanks as well as an automatically updating image you can link to your signature. In any case, thought I'd mention it as an option.

Here are examples from my Paseo's log over there:

70 MPG in a Paseo? THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE!

Yeah I've been on that website before. I'm a spreadsheet guy myself... I can make a graph pretty quick if I want to.

maybe the car was pushed for a couple hunderd miles :P

Haha, I can personally vouch for driving all 722.8 miles on that tank of gas.

577km on 41L of gas... 33.3mpg or 7.1L/100km

I belive you I had a 1990 Toyota Corolla and the best Gas mileage I got was 54 MPG.

The best I've been able to do since I got the ScanGauge is 6.2L/100KM or 38MPG. This includes about 15 minutes of city driving and 25 minutes of highway driving (90-110kph). Often during the highway driving, there was slight downward incline and other cars in front of me which seemed to help. I was able to coast quite a bit. Any time even the slightest acceleration is used, the fuel efficiency goes to ****. Only when "coasting" can good mpg be achieved it seems. So coast the most possible, stop the least possible. Who needs to stop at red lights and stop signs anyway, it's too costly! :P

I have not been able to do better than 7L/100KM when city-driving with frequent stops. When I can coast in 3rd, I can get near-highway mileage but as soon as there's an upward incline or I have to slow down then speed up again (even the slightest bit), the mileage goes to **** (easily over 10L/100KM while accelerating every so slightly).

If I do exclusively city with very frequent stops, it's easy to get 8.5L/100KM (pretty bad!).
