I just started using this method as well.

This should be a fill box to just plug our average speed into fuelly :)

An average speed entry would be nice, but that isn't the same as a city:highway split.

For those of us who have average speed readings, a box in Fuelly to enter that in AND HAVE FUELLY CALCULATE THE CITY/HWY % would be great. But, since that isn't likely to happen I calculated the figures myself for all average speeds between 21 and 48. I just look at my chart and enter the calculated % into Fuelly for each fill-up.

This is the quantitative method I'd hoped I'd find. Alas, I have no avg. speed function in my car. I'd have to resort to my Speedometer App which uses GPS to track time, speed & distance ... but it would get tedious, and I would surely get forgetful, having to start and stop an App every time I start and stop the car. At least I know it can be done!

I run mine based on average speed. I read the write up here I believe. 20mph=100% city and 50=100% highway. Run the math at each fuel up to determine percentage.. Meaning if you had an average speed of 35mph, you would report a 50% city usage for that tank. I don't think it's a perfect method, but there is no way I can track usage based on miles driven in a city or highway scenario. It's consistent across fuel ups and simple to calculate, so it's what I use.

I just roughly guess % based on city/hwy miles for my daily drive.
Outside of Fuelly, I have taken closer notes on trip FE versus # stoplights, outside temp, net headwind speed and route used. Those four factors account for ~85% of FE variation seen. Driving conservatively coupled with warmer temps has helped get FE up from 37 to 46 mpg trips. |
