How to estimate fuel consumption - best method!

Hi everyone,

Pls. tell me if there is such thread here, otherwise feel free to comment and discuss:

I read about the various ways to estimate your fuel usage? But what is the best and more accurate? First click, Second click, full tank, Light on the dashboard, something other....

Personally I use my light on the dashboard warning me for low fuel level. According to my estimations the light goes on when I have between 5 and 7 liters of diesel. However it depend of the ground level. If it is hilly the light flashes earlier so it's not so accurate way...
I hear that first click is not accurate too, but why...

Thanks in advance
