This past week I drove 314.5 miles, used 10.28 gallons of gas and paid $3.00, all of which equates to an average of 30.6 mpg or 5.5% above my car’s average fuel economy.
This 5.5% increase in fuel economy equates to a “savings” of roughly $.17 per gallon, which saved me $1.75 on this particular fill up. Not too good, but I’ll take it.
This $1.75 combined with my previous 12 week savings amounts to a total savings of $64.29, or roughly two fill ups.
Not bad for just paying better attention to my driving habits.
