I track each and every fillup with MS Excel (well since around 5,200 miles).

Vehicle: 2005 Scion tC (22/29 mpg rating)
Type of Driving: City and Highway combined (close to 50/50 ratio).
Distance of Travel: 52.92 miles/day on average* (12225 miles/231 days)
Gas Mileage: 25.7641mpg

*I drove to Texas this summer, so that added on close to 10 M/D to my average distance.

I've got an idea of what I'm running for mileage, I haven't done it as strictly as I could but anyway.


Typer of Driving: 90% north suburbs highway, freeway to the city little if any major grade changes. I'v had to have the A/C on a few days.

Distance of Travel: 91 mile round trip

Gas MIleage: averaging 28 -30mpg, depending on traffic.

Current known price per gallon $2.89.

Far out does my previous vehicle, a heavy G2500 conversion van. I think it barely did 8mpg.
