They actually double-clicked your car, to make sure it was full. The attendant spoke with Will and myself briefly, and was asking about Darin's Firefly, as well as other cars from Ecomodder (One of those plug opportunities for us.)
The two figures they gave me for you were 0.6 Gal, and 0.8 Gal.

80/0.6=133.333
The other figure:
80/0.8 = 100 MPG exactly.
They did, however, comment that
