Hypermiling Update 8-5-08
Filled 'er up this morning for the first time since the last update. That was SEVENTEEN DAYS ago.
Miles driven: 437.0 (Yes, it's odd that I managed to hit the gas station at the exact mile mark.)
Gallons used: 9.787
Miles per gallon: 44.651
This is a slight increase over last time, which in turn was a major increase over the previous time. So I'm getting almost 45 miles per gallon in a car that is rated for 30 during city driving. My time between fill-ups has gone from roughly ten or twelve days to seventeen. I'll definitely take it.
I voted in the local primary elections today, mostly to make sure the Detroit Zoo gets its funding. If you're local, I encourage you to please go out and do the same.
