Just added my 3rd tank to database. A couple of short cold weather trips really sucked down the FE. My work comute is 85% highway and about 50 miles but that is weekends only. My wifes is within walking distance and only dries in really bad weather. We have little stop and go city driving in our rural area with some rolling hills.


As far as the scan gauge goes, it was off by 2 mpg but it did help to identify the trips that hurt the FE.
