Cracked the top 10

Just had my best tank ever, and it put me on the leader board: Top Ecomodder's % over EPA

Also reached 100% over EPA. I'd be #9 if it wasn't for that weird Camry at the top. 950% over? Really?

That Camry has 3 entries in it fuel log on May 2 2010 -- and 2 of 'em are obviously erroneous. They total over 32,000 miles -- in one day?

Congrats, VegasDude. Do you drive in Nevada without A/C? I noticed your Altima on the list last week when I was checking to see how close my car is to the top ten.

I'm at #12, below at least one inactive vehicle and the ErrorCamry. My next fill won't be for another month, and I might just make #10 for real before then.

I think that Ecomodded should make the top 10 list be top 10 active vehicle list. If a car has not added an entry in 90 days it would be dropped from the active list.

What if people don't drive a vehicle anymore ?
You can't just erase what they've achieved with it.

I'd rather see the erronous entries being weeded out.

I usually don't use A/C. If I'm in the car for more than 30 minutes I might start using it on a very hot day. For short trips, with the low humidity, 100F is quite comfortable with the windows down.

That Camry needs to be removed or something. 900%+ over EPA is not do-able in less they are Flinstone-ing it.
