Mar 26 2014

Drove to work and back with a bit of city driving to play roller hockey. Overall warmer temps, good fuel mileage. Also looked at some houses. Another partial but I only filled 12 so I didn't have the fuel smell at home. Mileage will be way optimistic due to this.

Mar 4 2014

Drove to work and back for a day, and then parked it for a week. Good start up after sitting, but then drove to work for another couple of days. Fuel light didn't come on, so I got slightly better MPG than this shows (only 12gal added).

Feb 20 2014

Car idled after during some photos of new style 32s. Also some fuel leaked out right after filling up. Drove between houses and then to/from work all week in relatively warm weather. Seemed like I may have gotten 25mpg or just under. Going to continue trying to fill up 14mpg so fuel doesn't evaporate/leak so much.
