Fuel Economy Log – Week 19

This week was action packed full of driving, so I’ve broken this week’s Fuel Economy Log in to two parts:

Part 1 – I drove 359.7 miles, used 9.886 gallons of gas and paid $2.42 per gallon, all of which equates to a fuel economy 36.38 miles per gallon, which is 25.4% above my car’s average. 

This 25.4% increase in gas mileage equates to a savings of $.61 per gallon, or $6.03 for this fill up.

Part 2 – I drove 363.4 miles, used 10.033 gallons and paid $2.46 per gallon, all of which equates to a fuel economy of 36.22 miles per gallon, which is 24.9% above my car’s average.

This 24.9% increase in gas mileage equates to a per gallon savings of $.61, which saved me $6.15 on this particular fill up.

Combining the two savings with my previous 18 week total, I have now saved $97.94 on gas, which puts me on pace to save nearly $270 on gas this year.
