I usually fill it up completely and let it go until I need to fill it up again. Using the odometer, I can approximate my fuel consumption (I have a range of kilometers I can do). I know that it is for city AND highway, but since I pretty much always do the same trajectory, I can work on overall MPG.

I have compiled a few scenarios so far, like 100% highway at X km/h, but I don't drive that often long distances.
