So your saying that daytime running lights use as much energy as having the a/c or defrost on? If that is true, Holy crap! well according to these calculations of his and mine my mpg should go something like this:

at 31.5 mpg originally so 378 miles per tank (assuming I run out all 12 gallons)

lead foot (@20% loss): 302.40 mpt (25.2mpg) (haha)
daytime running lights: 362.88 mpt (30.2mpg)
The Defrost (a/c): 362.88 mpt (30.2mpg)
big things (200w): 365.64 mpt (30.4mpg)
the radio (100w): 371.64 mpt (30.9mpg)
windshield wipers (100w): 371.64 mpt (30.9mpg)
The heater: 374.28 mpt (31.1mpg)
Small things: 376.92 mpt (31.4mpg)
