Last leg, scottsburg to Avon. Lot of road construction thrust lot of stop and go driving. This part of drive consisted of 95% NON ethonal gas. Vmpg reported 42.+. This purchase of gas back to ethonal mix. So. Next reporting will consist of 55% NON ethonal and 45 % ethonal mix. All three fillups and total mileage the Average MPG was 39.94. For a full trunk , back seat full of stuff and two people I am very happy with MPG, even hyundai would be surprised. Buying NON ethonal gas is a loss when calculating cost per mile. If I could get about 5-6 miles per gal more then I would figure that is break even. This no gain for me..... Back to ethonal...

Weather has been cooler. 70's and mid 80's Mileage per notch: 35,40,43,24,34,45. The computer was reporting that my average MPG was normal int he 30.xx range. So if the actual mileage was around 29 then we maybe the car is beginning to understand my driving habits. Most mileage was city. Think when to woodlands once. And last 20 miles on car was to greens point. This is the 4th half fillup with shell mid grade .... So I can now say I am driving all shell...

Two trips to Conroe. Still has mostly been in the 90's over two week period. Last half fillup I had 1/2 tank of medium kroger and 1/2 tank of medium shell. So today the fill up was with medium shell. Need to remember that I fill up now when I get down to about a 1/2 tank of gas....

Purchase of kroger medium grade did not do much for mileage. The period has been hottttt.. Upper 90's for at least a month.. Needless to say I enjoy the creature co forts, like air conditioning.... Around 73-75... So this time I am trying shell mid grade and will try a couple of more times to see impact to mileage.... Will have cleaner engine at least.... So now have about half tank of kroger medium and half tank shell medim
