GRU- In those short trips I allowed the engine to fully warm-up so it should be pretty close to the MPG I'll get on the trip. I guess I'll have more incentive to stop less because it'll bring my MPG down.

Metro- I didn't have a ladder available and figured trying to get on top of my garage with a garbage can was a bad idea, so I rolled my tool box out of the garage, put a stool onto of it, and stood on top of that. It was worth it to get that shot because I think it looks pretty sweet.
