New garage feature: Trip Log

The Trip Log feature is now online in the garage.

The Trip Log gives you the option of tracking your fuel consumption over regularly traveled routes (assuming you have fuel consumption instrumentation). Consider it a high resolution version of the Fuel Log.

E.G. you can track the FE of your commute, or even break it down comparing "to" and "from" work. Doing this will let you see changes over a shorter time span than tank to tank.
  • the log calculates a running average of the entries made
  • the best (max. FE) entry is also highlighted
  • as with the Fuel Log, you can enter whatever details you want with each entry
  • graphical charts for each route you enter is coming (to the Fuel Log too)
The trips you track will be visible to people viewing your vehicle's garage entry. Have a look at the Blackfly's Trip Log (right column of its garage). (2 routes entered, ony one trip per route so far.)

You can add Routes/trip data through the "trip log" link in your garage control panel.
