I like numbers...
Our total trip was 4275 miles.
We drove the speed limit when we could, average of around 65mph.
We used 254 gallons of diesel fuel and averaged 16.8 mpg. This is worse than last year by 0.8mpg. Our worst was 14.2 mpg on the first tank, but this includes the idling I did each month during the winter to exercise things, so it is not really fair to include this. If I take that fill up out it averages 17.2mpg. Still worse than last year, I can't explain it other than maybe we had a head wind or the computer program update done by Mercedes in Raleigh?? Anyway, it is not horrible but not even close to my Roadtrek which was always north of 20mpg.
The average price of fuel was about $3 per gallon, with the northeast being the most expensive.
We try not to cover the same road twice, we did pretty good at it I think.
Here are the detailed stats for anyone the geeks out there.
How would we manage without the stats...lol! Gotta love my engineer. :)
