I know I use fuelly and FE.gov, but those aren't updated as I go, they are updated a while after I update EM.

I never tracked economy consistently until a couple months ago with my accord, which is my commuter. The Cadillac has been driven quite a bit. I wasn't on this site for a long time because of faded interest. I was only tracking these whole tanks on trips because I was willing to drive conservatively for that duration and I thought this forum would find that the most interesting. Consistently driving the CTS-V conservatively will likely never happen, that is like car abstinence to me. I do normally drive it very light and mix in wide open throttle/red line shifts for fun. This nets me averages in 24-26 range. It's kind of tough, I don't want to log a bunch of short hero runs and I don't want to log full tanks that don't reflect the driving of a true ecomodder. It leaves me with very little to work with.
