2009-10-08 420.7 mi. 14.52 US gal $2.359 28.97 US Odo - 117,703.4 - Mostly driving to work, with one trip to Madison. Took good ol' 44 both ways.
2009-09-26 360.4 mi. 12.53 US gal $2.399 28.76 US Odo 117282.6 - Still loaded with work tools & supplies.
2009-09-12 402.5 mi. 13.31 US gal $2.429 30.24 US Odo - 116921.9 Driving back and forth to work most of the tank.
2009-08-28 348.7 mi. 13.26 US gal $2.45 26.3 US Lots of hurrying and vehicle is now a work vehicle hauling around equipment.
2009-06-20 346.9 mi. 9.693 US gal $2.619 35.79 US Odo - 116169.1 It's amazing the fuel saving techniques when you pick up very quickly when a coolant hose blows. Pretty good hole blew out, so coolant temp was severly stressing the duct tape limp-home fix. Could not lug the engine much going up hills and after the hole blew out the third time I pulse & glided home... to keep the engine from running too long with no coolant pressurization.
2009-06-13 361.5 mi. 12.71 US gal $2.55 28.44 US Odo - 115822.2 Have not been driving very nice all the time. Quite a few rushed trips in this tank.
2009-05-31 372 mi. 12.37 US gal $2.599 30.07 US Odo - 115460.7 Some extended driving on medium speed roads in this tank.
2009-05-19 325.2 mi. 10.91 US gal $2.299 29.81 US Wife's trip to central WV. Break in odometer readings starts here. After this fillup, many days of off-road climbing started for the job she was doing.
2009-05-18 330 mi. 11.73 US gal $2.299 28.13 US Odo - 114612.1 Grill block is off, coolant temps are too variable. It is from another problem (I think the water pump cavitates), but I need the additional cooling for rare circumstances.

All local driving on this tank, no interstate driving as far as I remember.
2009-04-11 380.8 mi. 13.83 US gal $1.999 27.53 US Around town + about 80 miles on the highway. Grill put back on somewhere in the tank.
2009-03-17 247.2 mi. 7.395 US gal $1.999 33.43 US Nice slow trip back through WV and Ohio. Followed box trucks for a good portion of the trip. Took the grill off (to eliminate grill block) and engine temperatures stabilized to normal with very few periods of climbing temps at different speeds.
2009-03-17 355.2 mi. 10.75 US gal $1.959 33.04 US Return trip to Ohio. A lot slower taking my time, always trying to follow someone, but a bit of it solo on the road. Also includes climbing back up the mountains in Virginia and about 100 miles of Rt. 521 driving before I left. Grillblock still installed, still experiencing high engine temps even at lower speeds.
2009-03-15 380 mi. 13.84 US gal $1.719 27.46 US The rest of the of the high-speed run through WV and through North Carolina. Along with lots of spirited traffic going up and down Johnston Rd - Rt 521 in N/S Carolina.
2009-03-12 250.8 mi. 9.214 US gal $1.959 27.22 US Driving like a dove out of purgatory down 77s on the way to South Carolina. Grill block still in place, engine temps staying kind of high. Following some very high paced traffic.
2009-03-12 105 mi. 3.959 US gal $1.899 26.52 US Warmer weather. A lot of mileage around town.
2009-02-23 370 mi. 14.56 US gal $1.762 25.41 US More of the same really cold snowy weather.
2009-02-06 375.5 mi. 14.18 US gal $1.819 26.48 US Finally, some weather above freezing. 100+ miles of highway.
2009-01-15 256 mi. 11.24 US gal $1.959 22.78 US Even more worser weather. Driving through 10"+ of snow to get to road. Highs in negative digits at times, very abnormal for Ohio.
2009-01-09 343 mi. 12.89 US gal $1.762 26.61 US The rest of the trip down to Central Ohio and back into the winter storm, freezing conditions.
2009-01-02 137.8 mi. 5.29 US gal $1.62 26.05 US More winter weather, sludging through 2" of snow in 4wd until further south on highway... then flowing with traffic going waay too fast.
2008-12-24 270 mi. 12.33 US gal $1.559 21.9 US Extreme (for here) winter driving. Sludging through ice and snow with 4wd and some single digit temperatures.

...and some possible payback for an early click from the last fillup.
2008-12-04 53.9 mi. 1.164 US gal $1.599 46.31 US Average speed around 35 mph. Ran along S.R. 44 for a large portion of the trip, great FE road. Lots of idling before fillup. Not too sure of the indicated mileage, could be where the fuel clicked off on this fillup.
2008-12-03 353.9 mi. 14.05 US gal $1.659 25.19 US Normal driving tank.
