Tom's Complete Gas/Mileage Records: 2009 Fit Sport
 
Hey all, I have been faithfully recording every fillup on my 2009 Fit Sport; From 29 Oct 2008 until 23 Apr 2011; that's 118 fillups so far. I have date, odometer, gallons, price per gallon, and calculated mpg.

Anyone who is interested in seeing/massaging the numbers can download the spreadsheet here:

I primarily drive to work 25 miles each way in LA freeway traffic. The car has only been on one road trip CA -> CO.

If anyone is curious, I use the iPhone app called Accufuel. And no, I don't plug in numbers standing next to my open gas tank. :D

Enjoy!

Nice work, gilkman. I kept track for about a month... but I did manage 40.2mpg on my last tank. Pumped old tires up to 44psi and drove like my grandma.

I noticed you had a 43mpg tank... well above your average. Any recollection of why that tank was so much higher? Drive downhill for a week?

Lee: unexplained anomaly..Even the dates between fill-ups around that time frame are normal (i.e no 200-300 mile road-trip style days). Maybe summer in LA, the traffic was light, no braking every 5 secs like normal?

Thanks for the chart but that site wants an email to download the file and their privacy policy is not reassuring to me.

As much as I'd like to see it, I'm thinking it's not worth the spam.

I did it, put in my email address, got no spam in last 24 hrs.

And every "net nerd" should have a separate Hotmail account just for situations like this....

I really don't get the point of a disposable email. You often have to submit it to sites that mail you a link to verify so you have to check it anyway--and thus sort through the spam for the stuff you actually have to respond to. I've had more of these emails than I can count over the years and they've been more trouble than they're worth. YMMV.

PS. Sorry for the derail. I just wanted to post the privacy policy link for anyone who might not have seen it. As you were.
