Excellent question, but it doesn't work in my favor. I was at about 30+ MPG without trying. This would be in line with "old EPA" figures. The above savings is based on 27 MPG. If I adjust it to my previous 31 MPG, I get this :
That knocks my numbers down a lot. Over 34 months I am now saving $46 per month and $555 per year. That gives me a smaller "mod budget" to work with.
On the other hand, I'm adopting the overall decision of the site, which is to use the new EPA figures for comparison. Using the new EPA does make me look spiffier, but I think it's better if we all stick to one measuring stick in the Garage and debate the merits of such in threads.
