Fuel Economy Log Weeks 8 & 9

June 20th, 2006 | by Brian Carr |

Week 8, I drove 381.4 miles between fill ups, used 11.203 gallons and paid $2.98 per gallon, which equates to 34.04 miles per gallon. This is a 14.8% increase over my car’s average gas mileage, which is a savings of roughly $.44 per gallon, or $4.93 for this fill up.

Week 9, I drove 331.5 miles between fill ups, used 10.124 gallons and paid $2.90 per gallon, which equates to 32.75 mpg. This is a 12.93% increase over my car’s average fuel economy, which is a savings of roughly $.38 per gallon, or $3.85 for this fill up.

This brings my total savings up to $52.65 for nine weeks, which over the span of a year means a savings of well over $300.

Not bad for taking it easy and being a smart driver.
